I grew up in Franklin, Massachusetts my whole life until I moved to the University of Michigan to study. I recently finished my masters degree in computer science, and now I'm taking a gap year to travel and to thru hike the Pacific Crest Trail this summer.

I aspire to never stop learning and to always remember "do what makes you happy".

Check out the video I made of my road trip around the US!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In the summer of 2015, I went on a road trip around the USA, camping and couchsurfing my way around. I loved meeting hosts and other travelers with the same travel bug as me. I ran into tons of people on the road, but I only really got to know people well and hear their stories when I was couchsurfing. Half the fun while traveling is meeting people new people.
