I'm an introvert in that I don't excel in situations with a lot of people and noise, but I do love talking with people one on one and getting to know more about them. I love hearing about people's families and childhoods so I can understand where they come from.

I'm a very easy going person and I tend to have an opinion on almost every topic and I like to discuss and hear different or similar opinions to my own.

I recently left my job and started traveling the world with some college friends. I'm taking this time to learn about my values and develop/relearn healthier habits (like reading more!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing because I want to meet new people as I begin to solo travel. I want to learn about their perspectives on life, what values they value, what stories they have to share, and what lessons they have to teach.

Interests

I'm a huge Roger Federer fan, but I honestly don't watch too much tennis anymore. I enjoy playing almost every sport. I'm interested in politics, especially international affairs and international perspectives.
