CURRENT MISSION

Do well in school and enjoy the college life (current)

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty much up for anything; I'm crazy and adventurous but I also love to sit back and just think for a while. I super-analyze everything but that's because I am fascinated by the world around me. I thought I had figured my self out until I came to college, ironically......but I'm working on it!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm very relaxed and I live life exactly in that way. I'm a minimalist and I feel that traveling has to be one of the greatest pleasures of life. I like to be busy and keep my self involved in multiple activities, ranging in several different areas. Although I am no extraordinary person, I feel extremely privileged to have such a great family, great friends, be in good health, and having enough money to enjoy the average things. I really hope I can contribute to something great in my lifetime and I really hope to make a difference.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't participated yet but I can't wait to surf! I would love to host but I literally don't have any space in my apartment right now, but definitely in the future.

Interests

I'm a bookworm (My current goal is to read 25 books this year) and I also love movies (especially action/adventure with an awesome story line). I feel that my personality reflects both the liberal arts and sciences because I am involved with both. I love my major (electrical engineering) and can't wait to use it. I love meeting new people and having intellectual conversations about anything!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My grandparents live in the foothills of the Himalayas and I was traveling from one village to the other. They have large jeeps and vans going from place to place, several times a day and when it's overcrowded (which is all the time pretty much) they have people sit on the roof. I was able to sit on the roof a few times and it was exhilarating. My friends and I grabbed on to the luggage rack by the sides and had a blast while driving through (I believe) the most beautiful mountainous region in the world. There was no pollution or noise, it was beautiful weather and we were able to see for miles and miles. By far, one of my favorite moments in life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn about the local lifestyle where I will be staying at, such as food, culture and overall the people.
