American working at a large NGO in East Africa. I’ve made it my life’s purpose to do what I can to help alleviate poverty and hunger at home and abroad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to meet and hang out with interesting people when I travel. Good food and drink is easy to find but good conversation is tougher.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: anything but country
Movies: I’ll try anything but the Twilight movies
Books: l feel bad about this but traveling is the only time I’m when I’m not too busy to read a book
