I love being in environments surrounded by language and culture that is incomprehensible to me. It causes me to take nothing for granted.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm just finishing about an English Teaching Fellowship in Kurashiki, Japan and will moving to San Francisco soon to attempt to break into the startup sphere. I figured it'd be fun to take the long way to SF so I'm going to be stopping in various countries throughout Asia and Europe along the way. Looking to meet interesting people and have some new experiences.
