About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to make life as exciting, fulfilling and delicious as possible.

ABOUT ME

from berkeley california, learning about war, conflict and human rights at sciences po paris. i went to college in california, spent a year working in washington dc and followed my instincts back to paris. my favorite color is purple, i love almonds, dark chocolate, red wine and good conversation. i wish i could travel more but am sadly constrained by my wallet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

the most important thing about traveling is exchanging ideas and perspectives. staying in a hotel for 3 days does not provide the same window into another culture as staying with locals. i think that we can teach each other all kinds of new things.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

couchsurfed in slovakia, slovenia, serbia and austria. met fantastic people and had a wonderful experience. really not interested in traveling in any other way at this point. it's the only way to truly see a city.

Interests

music, food, north africa and the middle east, human rights, solving problems, learning languages, reading about life, thinking about life, writing about life. i like being active and exploring and have trouble sitting still.
