Couch Surfing is the best way to travel. I love making connections with the incredible people who open their homes to strangers, hearing their stories, and sharing my first experience of an area with a local.

I served with Americorps NCCC for a year: I taught in an underprivileged elementary school, filed taxes for low income earners, built a Boy’s and Girl’s clubhouse, and I repaired homes in Puerto Rico.
