Coming off a year living in Vietnam, currently working my way home to the U.S. through Asia and Europe :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people and know that the best way to see and experience a new city isn't necessarily in museums, but rather on the streets and in local cafes, bars, concert venues. Locals know their city the best!
