Hey! My name’s Irit (Pronounced Ear-Eat). I’m currently backpacking around SE Asia & India and ending my trip in Europe before starting my studies in Government/Politics.

I love adventuring and learning about new cultures and their histories (both ancient and modern). I’m a huge foodie and try to eat as much local food as possible (and try my best to learn some new recipes along the way)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently watching Brooklyn 99 on Netflix because who doesn’t love a lil Andy Samberg in their lives
