About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make the most out of life.

ABOUT ME

I'm a US law school professor teaching in Tunisia in a foreign exchange program. I'm one of those lucky people whose life has taken many different turns, each one more interesting than the last. But, I have not spent much time abroad. Right now, all I want to do is to make the most of my time overseas before I return to the US to see what direction my life will go next.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't take myself too seriously and I try to keep my mind open to what might come my way. I want to experience as much as I can, and I'm always happy to find other easy going people who want to join me as I explore the places I live in and visit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A good friend told me about CS just before I left the US for an overseas teaching assignment in Tunisia in 2012.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've used CS to connect with other travelers and locals during my trips to Europe and throughout Tunisia in 2012. It was a great resource for me to make the most of my time as a solo traveler.

Interests

I am a competitive ocean swimmer and a lifelong piano player. I like to sit in on jazz jams whenever I can. I also love to go dancing and clubbing, and I'm always on the search for a partner to do it with. Cooking is another passion that I feed on a regular basis. :-)

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a fan of action, espionage and comedy flicks. I listen to lots of jazz and R&B music, but I prefer disco, dance and house music when I go out clubbing.
