I grew up in the Detroit area and moved to Bonn in 2015 to do my bachelors in English and German. I love dogs, castles, poetry, and wine, among other things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined Couchsurfing with the goal of being able to easily travel around Europe while also meeting great new people :) I am not currently in a position to host right now, but whenever my situation changes, I hope to be able to offer the same opportunity to others that I'm on here for.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ate McDonald's for dinner on the lawn in front of the Eiffel tower at sunset, three days in a row. 🌅

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning about other cultures and traditions, especially in daily life, as well as sharing similarities or differences to my own culture. When I travel I like to take a more laid back approach and just get to know the city by walking around to the sights, although I am also a museum enthusiast when I have the time.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Gratitude, a positive attitude, and definitely Haribo (which was founded in Bonn)!
