I grew up in Chicago and decided to go to college in Kraków, Poland. I was on an exchange program and lived in Bordeaux, France for 6 months. I desire to travel the world one day, sing, make short films, ride an elephant, sail around the world and become familiar with as many cultures as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people who will impact my life in a positive way, make lifelong memories and see cities from a native's point of view. :) Also to see a bit of life from someone else's perspective.

Interests

I like music, trying new food, drinking beer, going to cafés, watching movies/shows, traveling to places I've never been to, spending time with friends, being spontaneous.
