CURRENT MISSION

Have the summer of my life

ABOUT ME

I just graduated from college after a great four years, and before my job starts in September I'm spending about a month travelling around Europe. At the time of writing this I'm still deciding where to go- right now I only have my plane tickets. I'm hoping to see gorgeous things, meet great people, and have an experience I can talk about for the rest of my life.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live, but make sure you live well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just started here, so my participation is just beginning.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Several of my friends couchsurfed around the Middle East when we were studying abroad. I used hostels instead (I was scared, I admit it) but now I'm hoping to give it a try.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hezbollah- controlled Southern Lebanon. Stunningly gorgeous, with a constant voice in the back of your head saying "Time to go... Time to go..."

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm fairly well learned about Middle Eastern history and current events, and I'm decent with Arabic, so those are two things I'm happy to share. I've also found that many people don't understand the American political system as well as they think they do, and I'm happy to talk about that too.
