I'm Sofia, a PhD student in history studying in the U.K. I'm working on my dissertation on folklore right now, and need to dash around Europe for research with little to no funding.

Also, I'm much better at writing/reading languages than I am actually speaking any of them.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I'm going to need to travel for my thesis, and in typical broke college student fashion, I need to find ways to make that cheaper.
