I'm a 23 year old American student from California studying political science and international relations.
Since I was young, I've always had a passion for traveling and hope to one day cross every country off my checklist :)
I am fluent in English and semi-fluent in Arabic, but hope to one day learn more languages and improve my Arabic.
I love to explore historical sites, hike and wander through the nature of a country, or just meeting new people over beer/coffee.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I always prefer to meet locals and understand a country through their eyes and narratives. I believe this is truly the best way to explore a country/city.
