CURRENT MISSION

To fit everything into one day...

ABOUT ME

I really love traveling and learning new languages and about other cultures so I was very excited to find the couch surfing project. I love reading - gotta read a book all the time. I'm addicted to news - damn 24 hour news cycle. For fun I like to go road biking playing tennis. I also enjoy cooking. I like cats and dogs and other pets.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is all about being skeptical of everything called conventional wisdom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed through Europe last winter and met lots of cool people that way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had some great couchsurfing experiences in Istanbul and Paris! I surfed with 4 different people and they were so genuinely nice and wanted to show me around Istanbul and Paris, did so much more for me than I expected.
