Avid world traveller, I have been to 42 countries and counting!

I was born in Baltimore, MD, USA, but grew up moving back and forth between the U.S. and South Africa, finishing high school in Cape Town, SA (the best place in the world) and going back to the U.S. for university to study Environmental Engineering. I am currently doing an exchange for my third year at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, and am traveling as much as I can in this time! My mother lives in Beijing China, and I go live with her every summer for a period of time, and we try to explore Asia together :) After I finish my degree, I want to take a year off from engineering and work on the luxury yachts as a way to sail around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Would love to meet locals and new people while I'm traveling. I believe that the way you experience a place is not through the things you see, but rather through the people you meet (and of course the food you eat!).
