CURRENT MISSION

Brazil for the World Cup

ABOUT ME

I'm 23, grew up in Los Angeles, went to college up in the San Francisco Bay Area, and lived in Thailand for a year after that. I'm currently working as an English teacher back in L.A. with an eye towards Brazil this June. Writer, traveler, soccer (football) fan.

Good food, drink, and company is all I need to be happy. Some nice tunes are always welcome too.

PHILOSOPHY

“Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white.”

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been hosted by incredible folks in Poland, Ukraine, and Vietnam, while I've met so many more backpacking through Europe and Southeast Asia.

I hope to use CS when traveling to Brazil this summer, and I hope to move to a place suitable for hosting sometime this fall!

Интересы

I've kept a blog chronicling some of my experiences traveling through Asia, and I was an editor and radio DJ in college. I'm a fan of everyone from Rick Steves to Steve Brule. I like to be outside. Proud supporter of the USMNT.
