Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Now that I'm done with my graduate studies I have more time to travel. Yay! I'm not able to host right now, but if you are coming to Boston and tell me a bit about yourself, I can give you some advice to help you have a wonderful visit. And if our schedules line up, maybe we can meet up.
ABOUT ME
I'm friendly, energetic, and considerate. I enjoy meeting people. Since I was a kid, I've been interested in getting to know people from various cultures.
I grew up in a town next to Boston and have lived in Boston for the past dozen years. I enjoy traveling and showing visitors around town.
I'm looking to stay with someone who's responsible, upbeat, tidy, and a clear and pleasant communicator. I am good at entertaining myself, but it's nice to have an occasional meal together or do an activity together. I like a balance of quiet time and social time.
PHILOSOPHY
Make the world a better place. Think globally, act locally. Spread joy. May love prevail. Seize the day. Follow your passion. You get the idea ;)

I enjoy meeting people and showing visitors around town, so get in touch.
