About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living life in Washington, DC and hoping to continue to make new international friends as a host, the way I did when I was traveling!

ABOUT ME

I am an eager traveler and love getting as much of an interesting cultural experience as possible everywhere I go. I love seeing the world and meeting/learning from new people. I like to try new things everywhere I go and especially love visiting outdoorsy/active places!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been able to study abroad twice, and once (most amazingly) through the program Semester At Sea, where I went to 12 countries in 3.5 months. I've gotten to see people who are incredibly poor, inexplicably wealthy, angry, happy beyond reason and all in between despite their circumstances. My favorite thing about traveling is stumbling upon people who exude happiness even in the most unlikely circumstances.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A couch, a drink, and some laughs!
