Recent graduate of UVA traveling the continent with my Girlfriend. I'm a friendly/outgoing guy who is quasi-athletic and cleans up after myself. I also try my best to cook and love cooking for other people. Open minded and willing to learn. Half of my family comes from Greece so I love the culture and speak a tiny bit of the language but always love meeting other Greeks. About a year ago I backpacked 700 miles of the AT before returning to school to finish my studies, hoping to be able to do more backpacking in the near future. Always up for adventure!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Girlfriend and I are trying to travel the continent on a budget and want to facilitate meeting locals.
