About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to get lost in every city I visit

ABOUT ME

I graduated from university in 2016 and I've been solo traveling around Asia ever since. I hope to keep traveling and meeting new people and new cultures. I want to live an incredible and happy life but also arm myself with enough knowledge to be able to help save this planet from us.
I had a great time on my journey so far, using the website Workaway.info mostly to save money and meet amazing people, but now I want to try out couchsurfing since I used it with my friend recently and met some more amazing people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just recently graduated from university and I am living out of my backpack and traveling the world, so I do not have a house to offer anyone at the moment. But if we become friends, then my parents' home near Washington DC is always open to you.

I only recently started couch surfing, although I've had my profile for years, but I have only had amazing experiences. This community is full of really great people!

I can teach you to cook some good (vegetarian) foods!
Let's discuss philosophy and politics! (Or not..)
