Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
meeting people, see new places :)
ABOUT ME
I work and live in Philly and am loving it.
I love to balance work and play, life shouldn't be taken too seriously! To me, life is about people - meeting them, getting to know someone, and being in touch. There is always something important to learn from others.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe everyone is worth getting to know and should be treated with respect and a smile.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I haven't been able to host/participate much in the last 6 months for work/relocating but am finally set to get back. I would love to meet up for a drink or meal if available or looking to explore Philly. My schedule is a little difficult for hosting overnight but I love Philadelphia and bringing new people here.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I used couch surfing in India and it went very well. I also use it to get to know people locally or hang out.
Interests
The outdoors, hiking, cycling, photography, shopping, reading, swimming, and going out. I also enjoy coffee, chocolate, savory food & drink, and new places. Each weekend I go to a new pastry shop/try a new pastry in Philadelphia - the list is long if you need recommendations :)

Music, Movies, and Books
I enjoy everything but American country music. I like witty movies, foreign and films with a lot of character development. I don't have much time to read books, so I read newspapers more often.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've hiked a few "fourteener" (14,000ft+) mountains in the Colorado Rockies including Mount Massive.
Teach, Learn, Share
I know how to make: good coffee, scones, cookies, and such, apple cider, and can blow glass. This sounds nerdy but I can help with resumes and interviewing skills!
What I Can Share with Hosts
My city - I love it here. I think the touristy things are worthwhile because of the history in Philly. The food is also incredible - so many options at difference price points, we have it all here!
