My name is Lizzie, and I'm from downstate New York. I study Linguistics with a double minor in Korean and Japanese Studies at the University at Albany. Currently, I'm in the middle of my first semester abroad at Kansai Gaidai in Osaka. I'm really excited to keep meeting new people and learn more Japanese.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My friends highly recommended couchsurfing to me because it helped them during their time in the United States. I'm interested in making my own good experiences through couchsurfing while I travel.

Interests

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think it's amazing that I managed to survive 21 hours of solo travel my first time out of my home country...

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm more than happy to help people learn and practice English. And, of course, eager to learn more Japanese and various other things about Japan (for example).
