I’m a gap year student from the US, working at a school in the UK, trying to see as much of Europe as I can with the time I have left here!

I love literature, films, philosophy, art galleries, and nice bars. I’m planning on studying International Relations at university (Georgetown Uni in Washington DC), so I’m looking to experience as much local culture as I can. The tourist monuments will always be there, but you can never relive or replace the memories and people you meet along the way.

Even if hosting does not work out, I am always interested in grabbing a pint and swapping travel stories

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Tourist traps are suffocating, especially when there are so many cool people and places to meet and see when traveling!
