My name is Connie Zhang, and I am planning to graduate in May 2016 with a double major in International Business and Business Economics & Public Policy and minor in Economics from the George Washington School of Business. I currently live in Washington DC.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel, and would love to meet people from around the world, and in return, host others. I believe that while travelling, it's important for people to try to meet the locals to get a better understanding of that place's culture.

Interests

I used to be a competitive swimmer, and take that work ethic and dedication with me in everything I do. I love to cook, hear people's experiences, travel, hike, surf, read, write, and see the world.
