I'm a biological engineering PhD student at NC State who loves to travel and explore. I absolutely love Raleigh, NC and I want to others to have the experience of appreciating it. I haven't been going out as often as I like, so it'd be lovely to have an excuse to adventure!

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please do NOT contact me regarding a date. I am not interested- I just want to meet unique people and make friends on this app. There’s been a lot of this sort of activity going on recently, so in an effort to reduce these types of users in the community, I will be reporting anyone who messages me on such grounds. Couchsurfing is not your dating app.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting locals when I travel is best part of traveling! Not only do I want to experience that, but I want others to as well when they visit Raleigh, NC. I need excuses to experience different things and make new friends! I like hosting travelers, and typically not people who already live in this city and need a place to live for free.
