About Me

I love to explore nuanced ideas and worthwhile stories. This is why I enjoy traveling and sharing my experiences with others. As a soon to be certified physical therapist, I am excited to engage with people who have vastly different backgrounds and unique narratives. When I was a resident assistant for an international dormity and on my various service trips in Europe and Central America, I had the opportunity to see the beauty of people's cultures no matter where they were from. It was refreshing to see their outlook on life. I also enjoy connecting with people through meaningful conversation and games as I like to play sports and stay active. Overall, I am easy going and enjoy the outdoors, sports and various card/board games. I also like to sit down and read a good book or carry on conversation about a variety of topics.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing because I want to connect with others and engage with different cultures in purposeful ways. As an experienced traveler who have lived with host families for over 5 months collectively, I know that connecting with the different familes in their homes and experiencing their lives allows my life to be truly enriched and I was hopefully able to bring some good will to them through my gifts of service and quality conversation.
