Hello! I recently graduated from the University of Southern California and plan to spend the next 3-6 months travelling through Europe, South America, and beyond. I absolutely love meeting new people, trying interesting foods, and dancing. I'm currently looking for cities with great west coast swing, zouk, salsa, or bachata scenes.

I was born in New York City, raised in New Jersey, went to college in Los Angeles, and then moved to Seattle. I've gotten to see a lot of the US and a few cities in Europe- hopefully a lot more soon! I'm excited to meet people from around the world and get a local's perspective on a new city. When I get back to the states, I'd be happy to return the favor and contribute to the couchsurfing community.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking to really get to know a few cities in Europe and beyond. I want to get a local's perspective on living and experiencing a new place. Couch surfing will help me extend the amount of time I am able to travel abroad, but ideally might open my eyes to a new potential city to call my home.

If you are passionate about the place you live and want to share your love of the city/people/culture/dance/cuisine- please reach out! Even if you can't host, I'd love to make some local friends and am always adding to my list of destinations to visit. I am always open to restaurant recommendations too =)
