Hello there! I'm completely new to Couchsurfing, but I love the idea of getting to meet locals wherever I travel. I'd love to learn more about your culture, whether that includes food, music, art, hiking, cinema, or anything else!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to do more than just be a tourist. I want to really dive into different cultures and learn more about them than what they tell you at the info center

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a row boat through an underground glow worm cave in New Zealand

Teach, Learn, Share

Well I am not a diverse chef and don't really play music, so I can't offer the usual things. I do know a lot about science though, and I love having deep discussions about philosophy and culture. I can also speak some French and Spanish and am learning Italian for the first time, so we could practice languages together. I'm really interested in finding good vegan/vegetarian food, so I'd love to see what your local area has to offer!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am really into film as a hobby, so I can always recommend great indie movies. I am a modest vegan/vegetarian cook. Other things I can share are stories from my travels around Europe, the South Pacific, and the United States. We can speak English, French, or Spanish together (though I am not fluent in the last two... yet...) I'm sure we will have a good time together!
