Pursuing a master's in Berlin now but not really able to host.

Never sacrifice a principle for a temporary gain. Working together and pooling resources always produces the better outcome in the long term, if not always in the short.

Be good to people - everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I don't use it that much - when I travel I am far too spontaneous to invest the time/effort to send requests. I enjoy hosting though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Watching the sunset from the top of Half Dome, waking up in Kyoto less than 48 hours after deciding to go to Japan, multiple other serendipitous travel moments, some of my best swims of my life (when years of work pay off in a matter of seconds).

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach swimming and surfing, and anything else I can learn first

What I Can Share with Hosts

A unique perspective on the state of things, and respect.
