Overview
About Me
Hello! I'm a recent grad at the College of William & Mary. I come from the Midwestern part of the United States and last summer I lived/traveled/studied in Germany. And now I live and work in Erfurt, Thueringen! A must-see, beautiful medieval city ;)
I love to get to know people, sing classical music, read books, watch movies, visit museums and historic sites, and go on walks. I look forward to seeing more of the world every year!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Last summer, I took some classes at the Uni. Potsdam just outside of Berlin and I traveled for a few weeks with a friend in Germany and BeNeLux.
CS seems like a great way to meet new people from all over the world. I also would really like to learn what it takes to be a good CS host so that I can return the favor when I'm at home :)
I'm very new to CS, so unfortunately I have limited references, BUT I'm very happy to Skype or call if you would like to chat before accepting/meeting me.

Music, Movies, and Books
I really enjoy listening to Ben Folds, I think that every Tarantino Film is a classic (yeah, like every other Millennial), and the best books I've read recently have been Amy Poehler's 'Yes, Please', Stephen King's '11/22/63', Mindy Kaling's second book 'Why Not Me?', and Sheryl Sandberg's 'Option B.' I can also hash out Game of Thrones theories with the best of them!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I went skydiving on the East Coast of the US last fall! (And would be happy to tell you all about it :D )
I also took a kayaking class which was certainly an adventure.
Teach, Learn, Share
I like crafting and can teach you how to knit really easily! I could also teach you some easy swing dancing moves and I love to bake as well and would be happy to share recipes for classic American dishes :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'm full of stories and can tell you all about life as a college student in the US. Or I can just tell you bad jokes :)
