I am a college senior spending my time in the Little Italy neighborhood of Chicago. When I am not absorbed in my books, you can find me by the lakeshore getting my daily exercise or training for my next race. I enjoy traveling, but currently experiencing the longest hiatus from it due to academic and financial reasons. I am serving as an Americorps VISTA, LBJ's longstanding program in the Puerto Rican neighborhood of Chicago and anxiously waiting to hear back from medical schools.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love the idea of meeting new people from different walks of life and put each other outside of our comfort zones. It truly changes the traveling experience and makes it more memorable due to its social connectedness aspect.

兴趣

I tend to be all over the place depending on my state of mind and place. I enjoy the solitude of non fiction reading, while being unapologitically outgoing. Camping, hiking, climbing, etc. have been integral to my summer vacations out in the Himalayas. Coming from a family that has been around the globe for more than a century, I identify as a global citizen and culture and politics can be good conversation starters. Recently, I have taken upon diving as my next adventure.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情
