CURRENT MISSION

I am an incoming grad student at BU this fall, so looking for a place to stay for a few days whilst I find an apartment.

ABOUT ME

I collect hats from the places I travel; anything ridiculous, weird or cool. I love exploring and trying new things. I am currently in Chongqing, China learning Chinese and seeing things I have never seen before. Everyday is different here, which is pretty cool. I enjoy going to plays, gigs, anything outdoors and I'll give it a go. OH and I love cooking.

PHILOSOPHY

"Nothing in life is to be feared, only to be understand. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less." Marie Curie.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

To meet new people, hear their stories and practice my (extremely limited) Chinese.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Lived in a village in the Nilgris Hills in Tamil Nadu, India, where I lived with the Kokkal people and learnt all about their culture. Something pretty cool for an Anthropology graduate. We built a mense house (place for women to go during their menstruation) for the women and conducted health and sanitation awareness.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I can cook you a mean meal, or a pretty decent cake. I'll share my travelling stories and teach you a few words in Chinese.
