Hello! I'm twenty one year old college student. I grew up in the scrubbers of Indianapolis and now I am attending college downtown Chicago. Where I am currently living. I love traveling seeing new places and learning about different cultures. I'm very friendly and bubbly person. I love hosting people and having people over! I am a very clean and respectfully person. In the summer I enjoy traveling and serving. For the past few summers, I have been teaching English in Japan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm Couchsurfing because I love getting to know and hearing stories of the locals in the countries I'm visiting. I would much rather stay a few nights with local people than to stay at a hotel and miss the opportunity to get to know the culture and people of the place. I have had very good experiences in the past staying with locals when I was living in Europe.
