Hi!! I am a recent high school graduate taking a gap year. In the fall I was living in Prague doing an internship for democrats abroad. I also was in Israel for a bit and Palestine working with a womens cooperative that helped women sell their hand embroidery.
I love talking and meeting new people and am super friendly but also very cool with quiet and respecting your space.
I love having long debates about anything from philosophy, politics, music, dogs, anything!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

music: Allah Las, Tame Impala, Parquet Courts, Porches, Arcade Fire, St. Vincent, David Bowie, Kanye West, Father John Misty, Action Bronson. (I listen to loads of different types of music but I hope this gives an idea)
movies: I am into cool movies but don't have much of my own taste in them because my best friend is super into film so I watch what she recommends most of the time.
books: I am currently reading Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace which may be my greatest endeavour to date. I also love Murakami, Donna Tartt, and Jeffrey Eugenides to name a few.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

one time i rode my bike from where I live in new jersey to brooklyn and back! it was wild and i got hit by a van. this may not seem like an impressive feat to bikers or people who haven't ridden their bikes in ny but it was a big deal for me at the time.
