ABOUT ME

Three R's: Reading, Writing, Running. I run marathons and ultras. I am interested in almost everything—I'm a PhD student in information studies at Drexel in Philadelphia. I have a background in advertising, linguistics and second-language teaching. I love traveling and meeting other travelers. In my free time I cook and eat (love farm-to-table, local restaurants), and sometimes paint.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love to travel and meet fellow travelers! I have a small apartment and can't offer much hospitality, but I'd love to meet up and show you around.
