I am passionate about traveling to understand the diversity of human experiences in the world. I am interested in international development, eating new foods (and learning how to cook them), and learning new languages. My hobbies include hiking, biking, reading, backpacking, running, and Juggling. Also a new one is photography! Currently my self-driven educational interests are centered around global public health, anthropological field research, Spanish, and nature.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I prefer to travel outside of the tourist bubble and make local friends and connections!

Fun movie story: When Black Panther came out, I watched it in Senegal with two of my Senegalese friends who had never been to the movie theater before!
