ABOUT ME

I hold an undergrad degree in Art History/Architecture and am currently traveling as much as possible before settling on a grad school....wherever that might be! Also, my mom thinks I'm cool :D

PHILOSOPHY

"The idea is to remain in a state of constant departure while always arriving. It saves on introductions and goodbyes. The ride does not require explanation - just occupance. That's where you guys come in. It's like you come onto this planet with a crayon box. Now you may get the 8 pack, you may get the 16 pack but it's all in what you do with the crayons - the colors - that you're given."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My couch surfing experience is limited but I'm open to hosting or just meeting up for a cup of coffee.
