I'm a really easygoing person and if I'm not studying, working, or traveling, I'm always with friends. I study applied linguistics at Georgia State University and I really love learning about new languages and cultures. I tend to plan trips last minute and am always trying something new & adventurous !

I will not host for any festivals/concerts, and I don't want to host anyone who's here to party. I also don't host surfers without references. I'm sorry, but my safety is my #1 priority.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people from different backgrounds and learning about their cultures and experiences! I like the fact that with CS, you can get to know the person you are staying with before you get there! I would rather make a local friend than simply stay in a hostel

Interests

Travel is not an interest of mine, rather a passion. I have been to 30/50 US States and so far 11 countries. I love documenting my travels through photography. I speak German pretty well and know a tiny bit of Spanish and Italian. Maybe you can teach me a bit of your language?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've flown a plane ✈ As well as jumped out of one (twice)!
I guess also the fact that I packed up and moved to Germany for an entire year and didn't even know the language 😁

Teach, Learn, Share

I am always happy to teach or help you out with your English! (I am studying to be an English teacher for non-native speakers) Other than that, I could tell you about American culture if that's something you're interested in! I would love to learn anything really that you can offer! If you would teach me a little bit of your language that would be really cool! I also love learning about foreign culture and how others view the world. Of course, if you are not interested in teaching me anything i don't mind at all 😊

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some good conversation, a little insight into American culture, and a new American friend! I am more than happy to help with the housework as well!
