ABOUT ME

Well, today is May 26th, and I am getting married the day after tomorrow! Pretty dang excited! :D Other than that, I am going into my second year of graduate school this fall, and am looking forward to taking International Trade Law, Portuguese, and Public Organization Theory. Also, I will start working on my thesis, which should be fun/difficult/interesting...

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will be traveling the entire summer to do field research, but I have a futon in my living room back in Tucson. It's not extremely comfortable, but we are super close to downtown and we're pretty quiet. We have hosted prospective students interested in going to the University of Arizona, but have yet to host anyone from Couch Surfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed once through CS, many many years ago while on a cycling tour down the Pacific coast. We stayed with a host in Monterey, CA for three days and had a blast!

兴趣

For fun, I love being outside and activities such as backpacking, cycling, swimming, gardening and running. Unfortunately, it has been difficult lately to have time for these things because up until this month, I worked two jobs and am a full-time student. I also enjoy a good beer, playing music and just talking and relaxing.
