About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Spend more time in our ball pit.

ABOUT ME

We are actually two people who have been friends since the early days of high school and are now living the dream as roommates in fabulous Cambridge in a gorgeous apartment with a ball pit (like those things in kid's play places full of plastic balls, but for us. In our house). One of us is a CPA, and the other is currently a Masters student in applied physics at UMass Boston. We both travel frequently, and go out a lot in and around Boston.

PHILOSOPHY

No one has ever regretted an adventure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mostly by hosting now.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Jo, the student, has hosted several surfers when she was living in Los Angeles (where she was for almost 9 years!)

Interests

The list of things we aren't interested in is much shorter... er... actually can't think of anything specific right now. Carolyn works as an auditor with a specialty in non-profits, and (professionally) is interested in financial reform. Jo is a microbiologist currently transitioning to physics research who can curse in 7 languages and is pretty excitable about public health and science. Personally we also like wrestling, music, museums, horror movies, cheese... you know, fun stuff.

Music, Movies, and Books

We'll try anything once or twice. Jo will buy any record on colored vinyl (she's trying to stop).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We've ridden every single geisterbahn on the Prater in Vienna in a single day. Does that amaze you?

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, we're obviously both pretty good at math, and Jo has a good handle on most general sciences.
