I'm one of the lucky (read: privileged) people whose family has always cultivated travel. Already at a young age my parents took me and my two sisters (I'm the sandwich kid) to various historical and scenic locations all over Europe. But I always had a thirst for more and went on my own adventure to the United States (Chicago, Illinois) at age 15. The amazing family who hosted me has an amazing daughter who in return lived with me for one year in Germany. Upon completing High School wanderlust was pulling my strings again. A program of the German government made it possible for me to live in India (Vadodara, Gujarat) for one year and gain experience working as an intern with an NGO. Now I am studying Sociology with a minor in Psychology.
I may not be the most extroverted person, but if you treat me with kindness and strike up an interesting topic, I will definitely have an opinion to share.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started couchsurfing over my friend's account and it has completely changed our travling experience. It is not always my preferred form of traveling, but when I couchsurf, I enjoy connecting with interesting people and falling asleep in a real home.

Music, Movies, and Books

I recently read "Half of a yellow Sun" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, which I liked a lot. Of course I love Harry Potter and I also enjoy reading non-fiction.
I have a broad taste in music, but am still very particular about what I listen to. My number one go-to is (american) rap and hip hop, but I also listen to a lot of RnB, pop, rock or alternative music
