Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I am traveling around the world to achieve my masters degree. I hope to make friends around the world at the same time!
ABOUT ME
Hello all! I am currently pursuing my Masters Of Arts in International Relations through Webster University. I will be spending 8 weeks in 5 different countries over the course of the year. I'll be in London, Vienna, Thailand, The Netherlands, and Switzerland through each of Webster's International campuses. I love to meet new people, see new places and overall have new experiences whether it is culture, food etc. I can't wait to explore the world and bring back to the States great memories, creative inspirations, and maybe some new recipes?
I am interested in art, music, politics, history and fashion. I tend to lurk around museums for hours, garnering inspiration and love a long chat over coffee, tea etc.
PHILOSOPHY
I try to take in as much in as I can. I am the type of person who truly lives life like every day is my last.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am hoping to find some lovely people to stay with during my breaks between semesters. If you have a kitchen, spices, etc, I'd love to help with dinner since luckily for you, I LOVE to cook. :-)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
None yet, but I spent some time in Nepal two years ago and heard great things about couch surfing from fellow travelers.
