Hello! I'm a college student currently attending the University of lllinois at Urbana-Champaign (I'm in Aerospace Engineering.) My friends say I'm kind of a hippie, I just say I'm a wayward soul still figuring things out. Though incredibly shy, I'm open-minded. I'm obsessively clean and I wouldn't dare do anything to your place unless you invited me to for some reason.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

College student, no money, filled with hardcore wanderlust. Who says you need to be rich to travel, right? Plus I've never been one for tourist traps. Locals always know better.
