I was born in Washington, DC and I have lived in New York City, Barcelona, and Istanbul.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have just returned home to DC (Bethesda) after living in Istanbul for two years. I have traveled all around South America (alone and with a backpack) and I would love to help travelers explore DC.

Interests

I am a law student in Washington, DC. I love traveling, foreign languages and taking naps on couches.

I also love reading the news and doing bikram yoga.

This summer, on my holiday from school, I will be working for a US foreign litigation office.
