About Me

Ciao!
Currently I am studying abroad in Viterbo, Italy!
I enjoy learning, traveling, eating (seriosuly, food is so good), and listening to music.
I love to laugh, smile and be sarcastic because life can be so serious.

Unfortunately I cannot accept guests here in Viterbo, Italy because I have no room. However, if you ever visit San Luis Obispo, California (where my home university is located), I will definitely host you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of my friends recently told me about Couchsurfing and I absolutely loved the idea! I am a new member but would love to be a part of this awesome community! Couchsurfing seems amazing because it's like traveling without ever leaving your couch (excuse the play on words 😆). In addition, you get to stay with locals so you get to really know the the culture of the area.
I also joined Couchsurfing because traveling is one of the greatest joys in life. Through traveling you have the opportunity to meet amazing people who have had all these memorable experiences!

Interests

I like visiting museums, eating at the local favorite place, and learning about different cultures. I enjoy participating in stimulating conversations from the political state of the United States to the correct pronunciation of "GIF". 😝

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite Genres: Thriller, Comedy, Action

Television: Rick and Morty, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, The Office, Parks and Recreation, Black Mirror

Books: Currently I am reading "The Girl on the Train". It is very interesting so far! I usually do not have much time to read but am open to book suggestions! I mostly read world news and whatever is on reddit. =)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-I jumped off a cliff that was about 50 ft above the water in Santa Cruz, California and ruptured my ear drum.
-Front row seat to a Glass Animals concert in Vienna
