The words that would best describe me are curious and introspective. I'm very open-minded​ to learning new things. And I love sharing new ideas with those close to me. I'm also quite argumentative with my friends. I love a good debate haha.

I'm avidly into fitness. I really feel incomplete if I haven't done some sort of exercise daily. Whether that's running, swimming, or rock climbing. I also practice mediation on a daily basis. Meditation helps me focus and live in the present moment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm planning on travelling with a group of my friends through Eastern Africa next year. I am excited to learn about the culture and communities there.
