CURRENT MISSION

To find real instances of imaginary worlds

ABOUT ME

I've been an architecture student for 8 years, but I'm finally done with my masters and am excited to be traveling again! I'm an easy going person who likes to share stories and meet new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'll be travelling with a fellowship that will take me to many countries around the world for the next six months, I hope to meet many new people while surfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed many couches in my travels especially while backpacking in Europe, but I usually found them through friends and my school network. I've only started couch surfing with this trip and it's been an incredible experience- I know some of the friendships I've made here will stay with me for a long, long time!

Interests

I'll be doing independent research for a traveling fellowship during the next year. I'll be looking at how fictional worlds (sci-fi, fantasy) can affect real communities and the built environment.

Basically I'm a geek who likes getting lost in books and movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming and kayaking at night in the bioluminiscent bay in Vieques, Puerto Rico: Your entire body becomes a shooting star it's like being in the movie avatar.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think the best part about my couchsurfing experience so far has been learning about a place from the locals and sharing travel stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I really enjoy drawing and try to do it as much as possible while traveling- My favorite thing to share is one of those. But my second favorite is food! I can cook traditional Caribbean food for anyone who's interested :)
