About Me

Hey, if you would ask me to describe myself in one word, I would say "curious". This is a feature I received from nature and it drives my life to the new horizons. I love to meet new people especially foreigners and learn about their lives, perspectives, opinions and ideas. I love to explore new countries especially with the help of local people and share my own culture with them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a Teaching assistant in Florida International University and now pursuing my PhD in Political Science. I will be presenting at the conference in the beginning of december and wanted to find a place o stay and possible meet a new friend in Canada. Even if I don't stay at your place when I am there, I would be so happy to meet new people in Miami and become friends.
