Student at the University of Miami interested in the Environmental Sciences and hoping to make a difference in conservation. Recently discovered a love for travel and experiencing different cultures. I generally consider myself a mellow person, but I love new crazy experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I become more able to travel (I love it!), I realize that I don't only wish to see the main "tourist attractions". I don't want to see the place; I want to experience the place. Couchsurfing seems like a great way to learn about and participate in local life.

Interests

There's too many. Science, hiking, cooking, dancing (ballroom, freestyle-in my bedroom when no one's around), tennis, drawing, animals, music (cello, hand drums-don't worry, I wouldn't bring them), various crafts, singing badly in the shower/car, biking: basically anything that gets me outside or moving or thinking.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music-acoustic folk pop alternative rock. Take those separately or all combined.
Movies-generally action, but good plot lines are appreciated.
Books-fantasy or non-fiction. (HP, LOTR yes)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived for 3 months in the Galápagos with a local host family.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach- Cooking? What do you want to learn?
Learn- Anything and everything. Well, maybe not throat singing. Actually, I'd like to learn that too.
Share- Stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Hopefully some fun times and potentially good food
