About Me

The pandemic was a catalyst for me to quit my job and go back to school. I'm currently working on my Bachelor's at Rutgers, double-majoring in Women & Gender Studies and German.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What a fun way to meet people and explore. The personal nature of staying with a host while traveling adds a whole other level of immersion and connection. This is how we change the world: communities of care.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Whether you are looking for a ghost-guest or a temporary BFF, I'm happy to adapt to your needs/schedule. I try my best to be as considerate and non-intrusive as a guest; that doesn't mean that I don't love to socialize and meet new people.
