CURRENT MISSION

"Only a few shortcuts are needed to make the world small" -HCP

ABOUT ME

I just finished undergraduate school and will soon be attending college for my master's/PhD in Immunology. My friends say that I am a bubbly person with lots of energy. Though this is certainly true, I do enjoy quiet nights to myself every now and then. I am seriously interested in learning about other countries, cultures, and specifically people. I find the best way to know a place is to understand the locals.

PHILOSOPHY

Typically I am a pretty open person. I think that there are so many experiences to be had in the world and thus being open is really the only way to allow yourself to have those experiences. Cliche, but I really think that truly knowing yourself is one of the most amazing ventures you can have.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am more than happy to host people, in hopes of making new friends and learning more about the world's culture. Currently, I can only host a few people on an infrequent basis, but if you are in the area send me a message and I will see if I can work something out.

Interests

I really enjoy outdoor activities such as rock climbing, swimming, horse riding, hiking, and meditation. I also enjoy long conversations and tea time =D.
