CURRENT MISSION world-centrism through travel. ABOUT ME I'm a Psychology student, so i try to balance academics with relaxation, travel, and centering -mostly running, yoga, meditation, guitar. I'm fun-loving, often dryly sarcastic, and generally easy to get along with. PHILOSOPHY Just buy the plane ticket. Figure out everything else along the way. Stay open to chance encounters with absurdity.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING So far ive only surfed a few times in Turkey and the Republic of Georgia. Looking forward to hosting once i find a home in SF. Currently in transition/traveling. Moving to San Francisco in August for PsyD program at CIIS. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I was fortunate to get my start in Turkey, where I was met with unreal hospitality. I hope to return the favor one day as a host. Mostly, I enjoy open conversation about peoples' lives and cultural perspectives, experiencing foreign nightlife and youth culture, traveling/trekking through world's great natural beauties.
