Hello! I am currently a junior at the University of Georgia in the United States. I study Physics, Astronomy and German. My hobbies include playing soccer, playing flute, cooking, baking, and basically anything pertaining to music. Also I love traveling and learning about new cultures. I am currently studying abroad in Freiburg, Germany to study the German language as well as environmentalism and sustainability.

I am very passionate about the environment, and I would like to work for NASA one day to conduct research that can help the world and humanity. I currently work with a team of undergrads to build satellites, and we are funded by NASA and the U.S. Air Force. I'm working toward my dream every day :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am traveling around Europe for the first time, and I wanted to find a way to fully experience the cities I am visiting and understand how the locals live. Couchsurfing seems like the best option! I love meeting new people, and I hope that they can guide me in the right direction during my travels. When I return home from Europe, I plan on opening my apartment for travelers as well to return the favor of hospitality.
