CURRENT MISSION

After my study abroad program ends in Barcelona, I'd like to do a trip through southern France and Switzerland ending in Italy.

ABOUT ME

Chicago born and bred, couldn't bear to leave the city for college so decided to stay in Hyde Park and attend University of Chicago, where I'm a third year English and Spanish lit major. I've spent a little time in South America but have only gotten to Europe this year (2013). In the future I'd like to go into education.

PHILOSOPHY

There's not really right or wrong; there's what's going to make you feel good or bad in the long run.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While I'm here in Europe and probably until I get my own place, I'll most likely only want to surf. But I'll be happy to host eventually when I have the means!
