I am a PhD student at the University of Cincinnati in the USA. I am a sociologist, and I love travel around the world. My PhD is about military, conflict studies, war and peace in a global sense. I am particularly interested in military interventions in the world, especially in Latin America. My focus countries are Argentina and Turkey. Due to this fact, I started exploring Latin American countries, and learning Spanish as well.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Since I am a sociologist, I want to touch the culture in the countries I visit. Couchsurfing is a good opportunity to do so. Besides, it is better to have friends from all over the world. I would very like to host some people from other cultures and countries.
