About Me

Hello! I am currently a student of Lesley University, studying nonprofit business management online. I love to travel and I move cities every 6 months. I am working on opening a center for people with disabilities in Guatemala.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My job and my education are very flexible so that I can keep traveling. I love weekend trip a to cool cities around the US, buy I don't love spending a bunch of money on hotels. I typically try to stay with friends, but I don't have friends in every city!

Interests

FOOD!! I love exploring cities and eating the local dishes. I'm also a fan of live music, all genres except metal. I like hiking and camping or just a nature-walk. I'm very involved in the special needs community.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love classic rock, alternative rock, rap and pop. My favorites include Rolling Stones, Radiohead, White Stripes, Sufjan Stevens and Kanye.
I feel terribly that I don't like good artistic films. I like movies that are stupidly entertaining. Some good ones include Hayao Myuzaki and Wes Anderson.
I read a lot of fiction and biographies with a few silly romance novels thrown in. Recently I have read a Jodi Picoult novel, Tina Fey's autobiography, and 50 Shades of Gray.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled to Israel with a group of intellectually disabled people!
