New to this thing! In my mid-20s and currently working in clinical research in oncology. I’ll be heading off to school soon and thrilled to travel as much as I can before starting this next chapter in my life. For me, one of the most important aspects of travel is meeting locals, learning about different views and cultures, and making meaningful connections. Beyond all the sightseeing, it’s the relationships we build that create a lasting impression.

Although from New York City, I’m a huge fan of nature, scenic views, and outdoor activities. I always try to keep an open mind to new experiences. I love to help people, listen to and share stories, and spread laughter. I’m excited to explore all that this world has to offer and hope to share as much of my knowledge and experience I can too!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet other travelers, locals, and truly experience a culture together. To broaden my perspective on the world and share my knowledge. To build lasting friendships that transcend distance
