CURRENT MISSION

To simply explore and discover, enjoy and learn.

ABOUT ME

I am open-minded and eager to branch out into the world that I know so little about. I've been in school my entire life, growing up in a family where nothing else was as important. I believe there is, and I know there is when I see beautiful places that I've only dreamt about venturing to. I am determined to explore. Right now, I am attending school at Emory University working on a Bachelors. I ultimately would like to attend Public Health school so that I can make my mark on the world and make it a little better. However, everything is up in the air for right now. I've come to realize that there are so many ways to make a difference and the world is a big place with infinite possibilities. I'm having a great time every step of the way as I figure out more about it and myself!

PHILOSOPHY

Be impulsive and take the path less taken. There is not enough time to waste it on being bored.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have only couchsurfed once since I'm fairly new to this project, but it was the most amazing experience of my life and it has inspired me to continue doing it. I am very open to host whenever I am able to and get more involved with other couchsurfers/hosts. I would love to be more involved with this wonderful project and want to participate as much as I can! So far, the experience has been amazing and the people I've come across have completely renewed my perspective on life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only surfed once, and have yet to host, though I plan to very soon. However, I do travel a lot, and sometimes do not have the living situation suitable for hosting. Regardless, I am always open to helping people find their way in a city or to hang out and get to know new people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Staying in rural China every summer when I was younger. The people, the culture, and the beautiful but simple lifestyle was both shocking and comforting. It was different than anything else I've ever experienced
