I love making new friends and meeting people from around the world. I love experiencing and learning about different cultures .

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a student so I can't really afford nights in a hotel and I like to travel alone so couchsurfing looks like an affordable option that also allows me to meet new people who can show me around and teach me about their culture!

Interests

I like to dance, listen to music, ride my bike, hike, make new friends, drink beer and wine, eat at restaurants and try new foods!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite bands are Alice In Chains and Manu Chao (totally different amiright?)

My favorite movies are basically everything Quentin Terrantino directed
