About Me

I'm a student that loves traveling, learning, and meeting new people. I'm a tidy person and I really love animals (vegan for 7 years now). I'm currently studying abroad with two friends in Copenhagen at Denmark Technical University for Biomedical Engineering and looking to travel all around while we're here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm studying in Copenhagen for about 4 months and looking to travel while I'm here. I love the idea of couch surfing and think it's a fantastic thing to be a part of.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Pretty much anything. I love live music and go to concerts/shows frequently. Favorite genre, I guess, would be indie music. Some artists are Bob Dylan, Sufjan Stevens, Radiohead, Fleet Foxes, Wilco, Animal Collective, Herbie Hancock, Thelonious Monk, Gil Scott Heron, The Clash, The Replacements, Led Zeppelin, Dan Deacon, Godspeed You! Black Emperor.

Movies:
Favorite directors are Kubrick, Wes Anderson, Cohen Brothers, Scorsese, and Tarantino. I really love a good horror movie but I can enjoy pretty much anything. I love old theaters where I can see midnight movies and really enjoy classic films.

Books:
Love classics of any sort. Dostoevsky, Huxley, Homer, Sartre, Kierkegaard, Kafka, Camus, Vonnegut. Will read pretty much anything I can get my hands on. Traveling books for me are typically the lord of the rings trilogy or a Vonnegut novel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been to the Highland Games in Scotland at the Isle of Skye and the Bridge of Allan games in Stirling. I love cultural festivals like those and want to experience as many as I can.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a biomedical engineer and I love math, robotics, and computer programming so any questions or interesting discussions about anything in that realm will interest me. Otherwise I love telling stories about places I've been or fun/strange people I've met. I like discussing current events in both the political sphere and about technology. I usually give good book and movie recommendations and I can talk about things I enjoy for days over a coffee or a drink.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I play guitar and the highland bagpipes if anyone happens to have either lying around. I clean up after myself well and I travel lightly.
