I am a Marketing student and I enjoy learning about different cultures and languages. As a minimalist, I prefer making memories through experiences rather than buying material items for short-term contentment. Growing up trilingual, I aspire to be a polyglot as well. I love reading and writing during my free time. To learn more about me, feel free to check out my blog at :

My goal is to do a solo traveling trip one day. I would also like to discover independent bookstores and local towns with awesome live music venues in different cities or states.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new friends and exchanging my cultural & traveling experience with people. I'm also keen on traveling on a low budget and gaining more insights from places that I visit.
