From the United States and spending part of my summer exploring Europe and going to Egypt (to see relatives). Trying to explore as much as I can before I start medical school. Currently a research intern at University of Wisconsin!

I love meet new people and learn about different cultures and lifestyles. I'm hoping to encounter and befriend new people as I travel that can make the trip more exciting and memorable.

I love to rollerblade (trying to recapture my youth), I run to maintain fitness and de-stress, and I love badminton even though I'm not very good at it. I have a love for long sleeve button up shirts where I roll the sleeves up. Maybe one day I will embrace short sleeves button ups but I'm not at that stage yet.

I've been know to ask a lot of questions, talk and joke too much, and make a fool out of myself. But hey, people remember that haha ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people and experiences. Looking to explore cities with new friends, rather than alone :)
