I'm a uni student from the Chicago, USA studying abroad at the University of Wollongong. I'm studying Molecular, Cellular, and Integrative Biology and I hope to attend nursing school. I love going to museums and art galleries. I also love hiking and any outdoor activity. (Just want to be clear, I am a feminist and very against Trump!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm trying to visit as much as Australia as I can while I'm here! I live in Wollongong near Sydney and I have visited Melbourne. I hope to visit Tasmania for my last trip after my semester at UOW ends in June. I am on Couchsurfing because I enjoy meeting Australians to learn from locals about their hometowns! I am a big history nerd and love learning about local history. I would love to meet others who enjoy chatting and sharing their hometowns with international travelers!
