Sobre Mim
CURRENT MISSION
Find all the answers. Go to all the concerts.
ABOUT ME
I'm originally from Southern California and I had been living in DC for the past several years. I just moved to Boston to start grad school so I'll be in the area the next couple of years.
PHILOSOPHY
If you're from the northern hemisphere, go to the southern and look up. If you're from the west, go to the east and look around. If you're from underneath, imagine yourself above and look down. Find all the differences, ask yourself why they're there, and never forget them.
Por que estou no Couchsurfing?
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
In addition to surfing in most of the countries I've visited, I've attended events and gone on various outing to meet people in the CS community.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I surfed a lot in Western Europe while I studied abroad in Barcelona. I've also surfed in Japan, Australia, and New Zealand, Mexico, and a couple of times in the U.S. And once in 2012 I met two girls from Japan on Couchsurf in DC and we all drove to Bonnaroo and camped there together! I've met so many great people through Couchsurf. It's honestly the funnest way to travel.
Interesses
Concerts, languages (wanna friend me on Duolingo?), health and fitness, travel, comedy, dogs, and increasingly yoga and meditation

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Star gazing in a huge, windy sugar cane field.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe
I can teach you English, Spanish, and some Japanese. I can also teach you a song on shamisen! Shamisen is a three-stringed Japanese folk instrument, perhaps most comparable to a banjo but still very different.
