About Me

A soon-to-be grad student at the University at Buffalo studying to be a speech-language pathologist

An introvert: I like being in one-on-one conversations/ interactions instead of conversations/interactions between a large group of people. Sometimes I like initiating conversations with people that look safe on my commute~

I live with my family, so I can't offer my home to travelers. :(

Dancing in the supermarket is fun~

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to get out of my comfort zone and widen my horizons by traveling and couchsurfing.

Meet new people

Interests

I love entering into people's stories because although we may be different in lots of ways, we can connect deeply through active listening and conversations~ :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went on a life-changing summer missions trip in Wildwood, NJ with a Christian organization called Epic Movement. One of the best decisions I made~ Feel free to ask about it :)

Being vulnerable with safe people

Conversations - I know I wrote about them before, but they can feel so magical. How we connect through our brokenness, our struggles, our emotions...

striving to improve family relationships and mental health one step at a time

Went on my 1st solo couchsurfing trip to Philly~ :)
