About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get home the most creative way possible.

ABOUT ME

I was born in the beer & sausage capital of the US -- Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I grew up there, but since moving out on my own i've lived in a different place every 2 years (on average).
I love being busy, and i always have several projects going simultaneously (if only in my mind sometimes). My greatest achievement was organizing the first science fair in the country of Armenia.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I started by unofficially hosting couchsurfers in my apartment in Kapan, Armenia. I enjoyed having guests so much that I signed up to get more! Now I am hoping to find fellow couchsurfers to help me discover new places.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I always loved hosting couchsurfers when i was living in Armenia, because i got to show off the things i loved about my home and constantly see things from a fresh perspective.

Interests

In general: Environment, water treatment, writing. When i'm traveling, i like to learn about the history of a place, especially ancient history, visit museums and take in the atmosphere. I'm always down to check out a wastewater treatment plant, too!
