About Me

I am an art historian student currently living in the United States as part of my ongoing research project. I'm seek to engage with social causes as much as possible which is why I take part as an intern at a photography and social justice NGO.
I'm always up for adventures and getting to see new places, which is why I moved out from my home country and seek to see the world and get to know people with diverse backgrounds from mine. It's one of the best experiences in the world to get to see how diverse and interesting everyone is.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see the world and share experiences with those that have lived for a while in a specific area. There is something invaluable in the experiences and the way they understand the space they live in that us, as travelers, want to take part of. Couchsurfing is good for doing this because you get to meet hosts that can show you the best activities in their cities that might not necessarily be the most well-known or most advertised by tourist websites.
