ABOUT ME

I love to travel, read, play music/listen to music, and talk to people from different walks of life. Right now I'm a Ph.D. student at Princeton studying economics. Things I like: philosophy, food, tennis, soccer, books, having great conversations

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a believer in the whole CS idea of connecting visitors with locals. Right now I'm living in a small room on-campus at Princeton so it's hard to host, but I'll be glad to show visitors around campus/the town.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed once so far—and it pretty much lived up to the hype I heard from my friends. Looking forward to more great experiences with CS!
