Hello, I'm Christopher, but you can just call me, Chris. I currently reside in Washington, D.C. I'm there for a summer internship in the urban planning field. I normally live in Tampa, Florida and attend the University of South Florida as graduate student. I'm fairly new to this concept of "couchsurfing", but I'm learning along the way. I have traveled the world from end-to-end it seems, but I'm always on the look out for my next adventure. I am generally described by others as someone easy to get along with and fairly social. Just FYI, I am a gay male. I hope that does not bother anyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
