About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Reducing spatial inequality one map at a time.

ABOUT ME

My friends would describe me as a driven and adventurous person. They'd also say that I'm someone who loves a great discussion and meeting new people.

I'm an avid traveler (traveling to over 30 countries) and I love learning about new cultures.

I'm also into issues of social justice. My "dream job" is to work as an urban planner.

I'm clean. I don't smoke. I don't do drugs. And I don't really drink.

PHILOSOPHY

To meet people, to understand the world, to make the world more just.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've CS with some friends as we traveled in the Balkans. We had such a great time as we met people.What I loved about CSing was that I was able to explore a new place and learn about the culture in a way that I have not had a chance to before.
