Activities i am interested in:
I want to learn a new culture, its language, and eat good food! I'm interested in more physical activities, including farmstays and woodworking.
Description
Hey! I am a mechanical engineering college student from California seeking to get out of my comfort zone to explore and grow!
Some hobbies of mine are photography & videography, working out, singing, cooking, hanging out with friends, and playing the guitar. My favorite hobby is salsa and bachata dancing, though! I also love sports and have played baseball and volleyball (fun fact, I'd like to get into figure skating and football).
My interests include: outdoorsy stuff, DIY projects (especially woodworking), farming/gardening, learning new languages and cultures, music, and how to cook delicious food. I am not afraid to get my hands dirty to learn something new :)
I look forward to the adventures and amazing people I will get to meet :D

I'd never solo traveled before this, so I came in feeling so pent-up with fear - how would some random lady in Italy take care of me for two weeks? However, I remember seeing Juls at… read more
