I am an international student (from Ghana) who has realized, in my final year of college, that my experience of the United States has pretty much been limited to Boston, MA. So I'm setting out in the last leg of this summer to correct that with a few friends.
I am pretty easygoing - if I do say so myself - and love to see new places, meet new people and do new things. You can never learn enough about the world and all its inhabitants.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to explore new places, but being on a student budget I would really rather save money to spend on experiences rather than accommodations. I love Couchsurfing for providing the opportunity to do this as well as meet great people along the way!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled across the Gambia river, from one end of The Gambia to the other in an afternoon. We kept a look out for hippos but were unlucky in that regard.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I currently live in a college dorm outside of Boston, so I may or may not be able to house you. I can meet up, and I can offer tips on where to see and when.
