Overview
About Me
This summer I spent a couple weeks in Marrakech, Morocco along with Amsterdam and Paris studying economic and cultural dynamics of Moroccan immigration to Western Europe with one of my professors - finishing off the summer with a bit of touring and trekking.
I grew up in the foothills of the Adirondack mountains, and the wilderness is still my escape from the busy, noisy world and all its complexity- I enjoy returning to the feeling of insignificance in a large universe.
I'm a student in Boston, studying Politics, Philosophy, and Economics, as well as Environmental Science. I love when conversations turn deep and heady, along with discussing current events, exciting or interesting experiences, and the simpler talks of companionship.
I love to travel, meet new people, experience new ways of life, foods, drinks, and see the varied and glorious terrain our planet has to offer.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I couchsurfed with an experienced friend in Anchorage, Alaska, and had such a great experience that I decided to make an account before my next journey! I hope to meet interesting new people, and host people once I settle with space to share.
Interests
I love adventure sports (hiking, biking, cliff-jumping, skiing) reading, singing, acting, gaming, and traveling. I'm passionate about energy & the environment, and have spent the early part of my career in Impact Investing.
