ABOUT ME

I love hiking and the outdoors. I love meeting new people and experiencing new ways of life. I'm an artist and a writer and have spent the past four years working on a graphic novel. I actually took a year off school to work on it and will start looking for a publisher soon. My favorite thing is really connecting with people, when you have a conversation with someone and realize that you've really learned something about them.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to live life to the fullest and make some kind of positive impact in the world, however small.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed a few times in the US and Europe and have consistently met kind, delightful people. What a great organization!

Right now I'm a student and live in a dorm, so I'm not really in a position to host. But once I have my own apartment again I would love to host! For now, hit me up if you're passing through and want to grab coffee!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed a bunch and I hope to return the favor soon!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I've been involved in a dialogue with Jewish and Arab Israelis and heard them speak respectfully to one another about their conflicting views.

I've climbed all day to a hidden mountain lake with deep black water surrounded by white rock.
