I recently graduated with a Master of Public Health degree in Pittsburgh, PA. In a few weeks I will be moving to Addis Ababa for an internship with the UNDP.

You can see from the list of countries I've visited that I am a travel enthusiast and after a two-year stint in Zambia as a Peace Corps Volunteer, I am excited to explore a new region of Africa.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Though I've never couchsurfed before, it definitely seems like a great way to meet new and open-minded people. I love getting to know the culture of a new place, so I am looking for hosts who are happy to make recommendations or even explore with me.
