In short, I'm both an eight year old and an eighty year old trapped in a young adult's body. Paradoxical? Yes.

In light of this, I'm just a human trying to understand and enjoy the complexity of life by seeing new sights, tasting new tastes, smelling new smells, hearing new sounds, and meeting new people! Forever a student (both officially and through the "School of Life"), I'm excited to venture into the world and explore its offerings!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Some of the most memorable travel experiences I have had involve spontaneous conversations with kind strangers. I believe couchsurfing to be a great tool for meeting new people, understanding multiple perspectives, and enriching the travel experience by immersing travelers in their surroundings.
