I'm a recent graduate of Indiana University with a double major in Speech and Hearing Sciences and Spanish, and I'm about to move to Chicago for grad school! I love to travel, meet new people, cook (even though I'm not very good yet), read, and go to concerts and festivals. I love exchanging stories and learning new things about people and their cultures and languages, so I'm ready to chat about most anything!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm always planning my next trip somewhere, and traveling on a budget never hurts! Learning about a place from someone who lives there and being able to experience it with them is always the most fun, too.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music so I have quite a few favorites, but some of them include Florence and the Machine, The Decemberists, Cage the Elephant, Glass Animals, Tame Impala, The Strokes, Vampire Weekend, Foster The People, Walk The Moon, The Killers, Ben Howard, Wolf Alice, and Alabama Shakes.

I'm always reading more than one book at once, so currently those are A Dance with Dragons, and The Shoemaker's Wife. But two of my all time favs are To Kill a Mockingbird and Pride & Prejudice!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I studied abroad in Spain last year and that was filled with so many cool experiences, but some of the coolest were hiking around the second tallest waterfall in Africa and going to Easter mass at the Vatican in Rome!
