Hey! My name is Lizzi, I'm 20, and I come from a small mill city in Massachusetts, USA. I work in a kitchen and study English at Salem State University. I'm going to be an English teacher someday...cool, right? I'm an introvert, but I love to have fun and joke around with those close to me. My perfect day would consist of sightseeing, shopping, and people watching at a cute cafe. If I had a sauna, you can bet your bottom dollar I'd be there every night!

Upcoming trip(s):
Finland (spring/summer 2018)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have heard many awesome things about this site, so I decided to check it out for myself. I don't travel often, but when I do, I like to have the most authentic experience as possible, and what better way to do that than by staying with a local?! I'm looking to make life long friends and create unforgettable memories. Plus, who doesn't like to save a little cash when traveling?
