CURRENT MISSION

Dispel ignorance, including my own.

ABOUT ME

An aspiring religious studies scholar (Buddhism), every single day I am amazed by how much one still has to learn. I am a quiet person because there is so much that needs to be contemplated. I try to be the best I can, and to me this means being compassionate and open-minded.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed in Mexico before and it was an amazing experience. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Interests

Reading, reading, reading. Grabbing coffee with friends. Cooking delicious vegan food. Making the most out of my college experience. Movies and music. I like to walk and reflect, see new things, and learn, always learn.
