Hello, this is a joint profile for me and my girlfriend Bhumi (using my original CS profile from my days in NYC). I'm originally from Southern California...went to university in Portland, Oregon (Lewis & Clark College). After college I lived in London for a year and then spent about 5 years living in NYC. After getting my fill of big city I life I decided to go back to school in North Carolina where I met my lovely partner, Bhumi. Take it from here Bhumes....

Hello! I'm Bhumi and while my family is originally Indian I grew up first in Birmingham, UK and then moved to North Carolina when I was 10. I did my undergrad and masters in biology and was working in a lab for Dengue fever when I met Scott. We both decided to spend a year in Australia (through Scott's work) and right now I'm applying to Physican Assistants programs back in the states. Currently, we live in Melbourne and are trying to see as much of AUS/NZ as possible...

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

Scott has had some amazing experiences hosting both in Portland Oregon and New York and also surfing across Hungary, Sweden, Scotland, and Denmark.
Bhumi has never couchsurfed before but wants to see why Scott keeps raving about it :)

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Scott: A host in Stockholm was so awesome and we got along so well that I decided to fly back 3 weeks later and do it all over again. Also, one time I was able to convince a group of muggers not to steal my watch.

Bhumi: Scott, that was two things...come on now. I recently worked 9 months as a nurse's aid in a Burn ICU and it made me appreciate so many things: ethical issues involving family members, the psychological effects of physical trama, and how lucky we should all feel to have loved ones to care for us during times of need.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

My girlfriend and I love to cook (read: she loves to cook and I'm a good sous-chef) and would definitely be willing to help out with making a dinner or breakfast or anything for our host!
