I’m an electrical engineering student with a minor in history and a lot of love for literature, art, math, rocketry, fashion, and traveling. I grew up in Houston, TX, but I moved to NYC for college 4 years ago and I’m loving it. I travel every time I have any spare money (read: pennies) and I’ll book before I plan things out. I learn so much from each place I visit and the people I meet, so #noregrets

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet interesting people and to be able to afford traveling on a student’s budget

Interests

Traveling! Art! History! Literature! Also anything engineering related!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music- lately very into trap but my tastes are wide ranging. I love books (mostly classics) and I am active on goodreads (username is Tamar Nagel). I’ll typically have at least one book on me at any given time, if not more. Right now I’m reading Orientalism (Edward W. Said) and I recently finished Berlin Alexanderplatz and thought it was amazing. Also been going through Greek tragedies- I’ve been in a play mood for some reason. I am not such a movie person, so idk

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Argentina for a month and learned how to drive a manual car by renting one and taking a spontaneous road trip by myself from Buenos Aires to Mar del Plata

Teach, Learn, Share

If you have a piano I could teach you how to play- I studied classical music for 12+ years and I love it. If you want any book recommendations, I’m your girl. Also, if you need a math or physics tutor I could probably help you out
