Hi. My background is in Anthropology and Public Health. Initially, I can be kind of quite, but if you ask me the right question you may not be able to get me to shut up haha.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in meeting and learning from new people. There are so many places I want to travel to, so why not do it now?

Interests

I enjoy reading fiction, especially fantasy. I gotten into crocheting. It's actually pretty therapeutic. I know, it sounds like a granny activity, but I've made a few clothing and accessories items that have turned out quite nicely. I'm also the kind of person that will visit museums and historic sights in every new place I visit. Learning about the history and culture of a place is important to me, even in my own town. I also, like walking or running at the park, especially in the spring and fall. Going to plays, checking out local musicians and artists is cool. I find there are few things better than socializing with friends over good food and drinks :)
