I'm a student of Cognitive Science at the University of California, Davis. I'm currently traveling Europe and about to study abroad this fall (2023) at the University of Mendoza in Argentina.

INTERESTS:

Mindfulness, hiking, outdoor adventures, dancing, trying all the delicious local foods (have to try everything at least once), concerts/music festivals, psychedelic exploration, yoga, modalities that heal trauma, bodywork, healthy living.

I love traveling and learning about different cultures. My mom is Armenian and grew up in Beirut, Lebanon and I spoke Armenian growing up. I think that's where I got a love for languages and diversity.

ABOUT ME (deeper)

I'm a kind, fun, easy-going, adventurous, and spiritual person. I'm all about loving and learning from others, exploring and learning about this beautiful earth, and leaving the world a little better if I can.

I'm gay and an LGBTQ+ advocate (too many of us are still dying). I will also always stand up for what is right, and also try to understand all sides.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love the type of people that participate in couch surfing! We love sharing and know that there is so much more that connects us and brings us together than the things that divide us.

兴趣

I love to get to know people and learn how they do life. I can always go for a hike, have a beach day, explore a city, go dancing or enjoy live music. I'm an ambivert: I love both quiet, more intimate connections with a few, as well as going out and feeling the energy of a big crowd and meeting new people, like at a festival.
