I am friendly and curious person who loves to explore new cultures and travel. I was born and raised in Europe until I was 10 yrs old when my family moved to the U.S. I am currently learning French and Italian.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to experience a culture the way that locals do which is very hard to do when staying in an hotel. This includes places to see, food and language.

Interests
