I'm a grad student in Berkeley, but I love taking weekend trips to exciting places - like skiing in Tahoe! I sometimes get to go further and travel around a bit to other countries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet new people while traveling and at home.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like listening to a variety of music. Favorite book is definitely the Count of Monte Cristo! Movies... I like happy and fun movies - pretty much any modern animated films like Ratatouille and How to train your dragon. Also enjoy older movies like Some Like it Hot and some Russian classics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went on an archaeological expedition in Russia. It was so much fun to live, work, and discover history for a few weeks with a talented and diverse group of people.
