ABOUT ME

I just finished my Masters in International Affairs and now am working on another masters in China. I have been in Hangzhou since September 2nd and need to make the most of it. I don't have the time to update my address right now but if you need a place near Zijingang Campus of Zhejiang University I can probably help out for a few days! School takes up most of my time but I still find the time for some soccer and salsa dancing :).

PHILOSOPHY

You don't stop playing because you get old, you get old because you stop playing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As of right now I am mostly a surfer or a host that can hang out. If you need a place to stay near Zijingang Campus of Zhejiang University in Hangzhou I may be able to accommodate.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While in Germany I was able to use couch surfing a lot and loved it! I was only able to host a few people in San Diego and now I have met some great people in Seoul!

Interests

I love salsa dancing and have gotten back into soccer recently. I love hearing about people's travel experiences and their opinions about just about everything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Budapest in general was just amazing!
I have performed with a salsa team.
I was deployed to Afghanistan and got to ride on helicopters all the time, its like getting paid to ride roller coasters!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share about life in the US and how my time in Germany and Asia has helped change me. I can also teach salsa and possibly show you around! Oh and if you have any questions on international affairs I can probably answer them lol.
