Hello! I am a 20 year old Material Science student at ETH Zurich in Switzerland. While living in the U.S. as a child, I fell in love with this country. It's incredible diversity in people, places, natural beauty and adventurous opportunities have long intrigued me, and for many years, I have been wanting to come back and discover more. I finally got this opportunity in the form of an exchange semester at the University of Pennsylvania, and I am happy to say that I have made the most of it. Now, I have the opportunity to travel for 5 weeks before classes start again back in Switzerland. I am incredibly excited to see where this journey will take me!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

For one, I find the personal experience of Couchsurfing very rewarding. The travel experience, to me, feels so much more genuine and interesting when I have the opportunity to meet and talk to local people (rather than staying at virtually the same chain hotel room every night).

Additionally, I am a student with a limited travel budget and I truly appreciate people opening their doors and supporting travelers like myself!

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

From rock to pop to hip hop, mostly just what's on the radio.
American talk shows and comedy movies have become a form of comic relief for me over the years.
As for books, my college textbooks currently use up most of my reading capacity.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Growing up, my family moved around a lot, giving me the opportunity to live in 4 different countries and travel to many more across three continents.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I'm happy to share many of the unique experiences that I've gained while living on three different continents. Spending time immersed in other cultures has not only shown me artifacts, but has given me many memorable insights about life itself. I am always delighted to share some of these stories, and I am even more eager to hear yours!
