CURRENT MISSION

To meet the characters of the world!

ABOUT ME

I'm a graduate student studying environmental management. I am pretty laid back and at times really goofy, so I've definitely learned to laugh at myself over the years.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to be obsessed with doing what you are suppose to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting/Hosted/Couchsurfed/Attend CS events

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed quite a bit, hosted a few times, and have met the most incredible people in the CS Community! I've also attended several great Couchcrashs and other random CS community meet ups.

Interests

I am pretty random in terms of activities. I play field hockey, practice judo and jiu jitsu, try to scuba diving when I have time/money and have recently picked up golf. I love traveling, learning about various cultures, languages, and enjoying the full culinary experience. I also enjoy going out, concerts, drawing, calligraphy, philosophical discussions, political debates and thrive on intellectual conversations. What can I say, that is my inner nerd!
