About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find an apartment and job near Washington D.C.!

ABOUT ME

Last year I studied abroad, but now live in a fly-over state (the beautiful land of Kansas).

I am taking a hefty hunk of change and uprooting. I am making my way over to the east coast, to live in northern Virginia. I will arrive in the area on August 5th!

I am San Francisco native, my dad is from New York City, and my mom is from Kansas City. I am very enthusiastic, empathetic, understanding, and relative.

I will be a hard worker and earn my keep to stay on your couch!

PHILOSOPHY

I am a diplomatic guy and believe trade and non-force are the best ways to coordinate between people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Relying on the kindness of humanity! I will scrub floors, cook meals, clean, or do repairs! I want to be helpful.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have spent many nights in hostels abroad, but have yet to try out Couchsurfing.

Interests

Speaking Spanish, politics, or economics, discussing topics on food/culture/beer/travel.

If it makes me laugh, offers new information, or makes my mind melt, it's good for me -- The best thing in life is good conversation.

I can teach people about cooking, DIY improvements to houses, and banking & finance (my profession currently).

I have experience at multiple colleges, whatever value that may add to our conversation, haha.
