My name is Stephanie, and I am currently a student at the University of Georgia, studying international affairs and political science. I have just finished a semester abroad at Oxford and I am looking forward to experiencing new cultures and places as I travel around Europe. My ultimate goals in life are to be happy, healthy and peaceful. But mostly happy. I firmly believe that life is too short to hold on to negativity, and I set out to make the best of every day as it comes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't want finances to hold me back from wonderful cultural experiences. Also I look forward to all the potential new friends I can make on my journey through court surfing. I also feel that surfing is the best way to get to know the culture from people who live through it every day.

Interests

I enjoy reading, wandering and listening to music. I'll try anything once and I enjoy meeting new people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all music, from Major Lazer to Elvis Crespo to J-Cole. I don't play any instruments but music is very important to me. I am currently reading the Game of Thrones book series but also enjoy all types of books.

Teach, Learn, Share

I consider myself to be a curious person and will never turn down an opportunity to learn something new! I will probably do more learning and sharing than teaching but this will change as time goes on.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A positive outlook and a smile :) also I enjoy cooking and could share a delicious meal. I also speak English and Spanish fairly well and could teach this as well :)
