I am currently a full-time Advertising student at George Mason University, studying advertising. I do photography for a living. Here is my website if you'd like to see what I do www.darinak.photography

I am very involved with non-profit work currently. I go on missions trips overseas twice a year to work with orphans and special children. I am actually going on a two-month mission trip this summer to Belarus and Ukraine.

I love exploring new places and meeting new people with all kinds of backgrounds.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am currently trying to explore as much of the world as I can while I'm young. I'm planning a backpacking trip around Europe this summer and would love to meet some locals at the places I go to to get a real feel for what it's like to live there.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen and admire all of it. Music is a huge part of my life. I have been studying the violin since I was 5 years old.
But if I had to pick a favorite genre I would definitely say Jazz.
