About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Spirit Quest across the United States for the summer.

ABOUT ME

Hey as of late June I will be on a road trip across the country. I feel society is in need of healing so I want to meet cool people around the country and bring people and good ideas together before I start my masters! I'm from CT but setting my location to places I need a couch to crash on. Let's do yoga and dream together then I'll cook you Persian food!

PHILOSOPHY

I practice a lot of yoga and believe a lot of Buddhist teachings. I am also an activist and believe people need to unite to address common issues. How to reconcile these two schools of thought is a challenge.

I do know I am committed to positive growth and surround myself with people i can undertake this journey wtih.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not used couchsurfing before so I hope to meet new people this summer!

Interests

I like to play tennis, go hiking, and do yoga. I love to cook and can cook from my Middle-Eastern background. I am excited to finally come to Australia for the first time!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hiked a very very high altitude volcano in Northern Chile. I felt both horrible and amazing after the next two days.

Teach, Learn, Share

I do a lot of yoga and have been studying a bit from the layayoga school (the one with all the chakras). I hope to share the powerful enlightening experiences with people and the ability to analyze and improve my environment.
