I'm a 21-year old student and I am studying to be a high school literature teacher. After graduation, I plan to go abroad to teach the English language for a year; then I will settle down in Boston, MA. I studied abroad Spring '16 and fell in love with traveling! I always want to adventure, whether it's hiking through mountains or exploring a new city. I'm very upbeat and optimistic, always smiling and laughing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This summer I am traveling through Europe. I have two jobs--one is for three weeks in Italy and the other is for three weeks in Ireland. I will be traveling to new cities/countries on the weekends and the weeks when I am free.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Studying abroad in Florence, Italy changed my life. It was the first time I'd traveled internationally and it made me realize how much I crave adventure.
