I'm the youngest of 5 siblings, and I was raised in Lake Tahoe. My dream is to go to space ❤️

I'm also a climber, swimmer, and I dabble in surfing! In general I'm super down for outdoor activities.

I also love watching and analyzing film! Fun facts: I was once an extra in a Steve Carrel movie, and I am a classically trained opera singer.

I also do a bit of photography on instagram:

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm planning to travel around Europe for about 2 months in early Summer 2019, after I graduate. It would be awesome to be able to stay with people who actually live in the countries I'm visiting. I really love learning languages, and I will absolutely do my best to learn yours before I visit!
