Hello!

My name is Kristine, and I'm 22 years old. I'm an American living in France, teaching English. However, I would like to be an occupational therapist.

I grew up all over the United States, as I moved a lot as a kid due to my parent's job. It taught me how to be adaptable, and the importance of kindness.

I'm curious, open-minded, and love learning new things.

I would love to take advantage of the time I have in Europe, and see as many countries/cities as I can. It's tough, as there is so much to see!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

To meet new people, learn, and discover new places!

I would love to learn more languages, and speak a few phrases in the local language. I hate being that person that doesn't learn how to say "hello" in the country that they're visiting :)

Always read the book before the movie!

I know how to play the viola, however it's been awhile since I've picked it up. I'm just relying on muscle memory haha

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Gone to the Grand Canyon! I went with my family a few years ago, but would like to go back and kayak in the river there.
