About Me

I recently graduated from art school in New York City and now I am in Poland for a year traveling and making short art films :)
I did my foreign exchange two years ago in Paris where I really fell in love with language learning, and then spent the rest of the year traveling around Europe visiting cities and spending time with the people there. Hopefully when I go back to the States all of my European friends will have a chance to visit me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a great way to connect with people and it offers other cultural exchanges and experiences with natives that perhaps hostels do not

Interests

mainly european cinema from the 50's-80's, american literature,I like listening to grimes and tame impala, but also really like classical indian music like Ravi Shankar etc. I like taking short i-phone movies and learning languages. I always start the day with strong coffee.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am not sure if I have any favorites but I'd love to discuss any of the above topics in person!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was with a friend in Greece on a tiny island called Anafi where we tented on the beach, one evening we hiked to the top of the island, slept over at the monastery, and woke up early to see the sun rise above the Aegean sea.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Couchsurfing for me is another form of cultural exchange, and I feel that I always carry with me the memories of my previous travels and love to share these and hear what other people have done. I think I have a nice sense of humor and in return please come visit me in Warsaw!
