We’re speaking on Thanksgiving weekend. You spent the holiday in San Francisco. How did you end up out there? "My roommate (Joe) and best friend, he has family out there. His aunt lives there. We can go out there. I’m also really close with that family. … It was awesome. It was really nice."
Is traveling one of the perks of coming to school in the United States? "That was one of the reasons why I came. … That is one of the perks: You get to see a lot of places. It’s not only traveling without soccer, but with it. I remember in my freshman year, we went down to D.C. and played Georgetown. I got to go down and see all of the history down there. It was really cool."
