I want to learn about how people live all over the world and gain a broader perspective. I believe we have more similarities than differences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking to meet people interested in sharing cultural experiences.

Interests

I love the outdoors, hiking and swimming. I am also an avid reader, and I am especially interested in philosophy, science, and history. I'm learning the guitar. I like to get involved in local activities such as markets and festivals if possible.
