I'm about to do my first solo trip + my first couch surfing in Amsterdam! (emptied my bank account for this one because life is about taking risks.)

I’m a student at the University of Florida. I study neuroscience and philosophy, and I have no idea what I’m doing after I graduate ...

My hobbies include yoga, photography, writing/playing music (ukulele, piano, vocals), having deep conversations, overthinking, and, of course, backpacking!

I'm always down for adventures and I’m not afraid to tough it out or be a bum :p but I also love simply relaxing or spending time with other people

PHILOSOPHY
To live dangerously

“For believe me! — the secret for harvesting from existence the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment is: to live dangerously!” - Friedrich Nietzsche

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people. To expand my awareness of the world around me. To experience new places from the perspective of the people who live there.
