Jack of many trades / master of none.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Networking / community / adventure

CS has been an amazing way to connect with some great people so far during my time here in the UAE. I've now hosted a bunch of times and been hosted a few times in the US, but love to get in touch with CSers when I visit a new place. There's nothing better for getting a local's insight.

Interests
