Hello! My names Mary and I'm taking a gap year from school, trying to travel as much as I can and meet as many people as I can in this year! I truly believe the best education is the one you acquire yourself, through immersing yourself in different cultures and lifestyles, and meeting people you would have never met before.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

Pink Floyd is my favorite band. Also some favorites are Tame Impala, the Grateful Dead, and the Beatles. One of my favorite books is Slaughterhouse Five, but I'm also a huge fan of Brave New World. I don't watch too many movies, but a childhood favorite of mine is Across the Universe, a Beatles-inspired movie.
