I am a student at UCLA in California who is spending a semester abroad studying in Bordeaux, France. Unfortunately I leave in December, but I hope to come back after graduating with my neuroscience degree to do research in robotic limbs! Alors je travaille dur pour améliorer mon français. No hablo español pero quiero aprender. This is my first time in Europe so I would like to gather as many diverse experiences as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To be able to explore different parts of Europe with the aid of locals and on a budget. Unfortunately I cannot host guests in my current living arrangement, but would love to attend CS meetups, especially those centered on language exchange.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Conversation in English and French, useless and not-so-useless knowledge, and an open spirit. I love to be able to be fully immersed in a way of life different from my own, no matter how uncomfortable I may feel initially. I will probably ask far too many questions about you and your day-to-day adventures. I like to think I am witty and perceptive so hopefully I can offer you a chuckle or some cool knowledge to carry forward.
