About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Build a time machine

ABOUT ME

I just graduated college with a degree in Neuroscience. I will be spending the next year teaching in northern France, and I want to explore as much and meet as many people as I can. I'm vegetarian and I prefer cats over dogs.

PHILOSOPHY

Never, never, never give up

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since I dont have my own place in the US I cant really host now. But when I will be at home I would love to show anybody around/ get coffee. Now that I am in Europe I want to travel around and meet a lot of great new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed all over France, in Toulouse and Paris. I met really cool people, and had a great time.

Interests

Reading, playing video games, running, cycling, swimming. But I haven't had much free time lately due to my studies.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music- pretty much everything, except country. Right now I really like Passion Pit, Sufjan Stevens, Phoenix, Mumford & Sons, Beirut, Arcade Fire...
Movies- Donnie Darko, anything by Miyazaki, American Beauty, Mean Girls
Books- "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak, and I recently have started the Song of Ice and Fire books by George R.R. Martin

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hiked from the Sea of Galilee in Israel to the Mediterranean Sea once. I've also done two half-marathons, and I'm going to start training for a triathlon soon.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn: I want to practice my French!
Teach: I can sort of juggle, and I know some great recipes!

Countries I’ve Visited
