About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To host and make friends from all over the world!

ABOUT ME

I am a chemistry student at University of Texas Austin. I love adventure (specifically of the hiking and climbing types) and meeting awesome people.

All testimonials can be found on a joint profile I have with Johnny, as we couchsurfed quite a bit in Europe in the summer of 2013: https://www.couchsurfing.org/profile.html?id=5H147AXR0

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CS is a great community of interesting people from all over the world, and I want to see the world through locals' eyes (when surfing). There is no such thing as too many friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had some sweet experiences couchsurfing in Zaandam, Zurich, Luzern, Prato, Barcelona, and Paris. Met some amazing people along the way and hope to keep in touch!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got blessed by the pope and watched a meteor shower in Cinque Terre one night!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn to surf, speak other languages and become a better climber. Beyond that, I'm interested in sharing / teaching whatever skills I can offer (intermediate spanish, cooking, and more!). I am excited and willing to give as much as I receive from hosts and maybe even make lifetime friends.

What I Can Share with Hosts
