ABOUT ME

Ive just moved to Leiden to begin my Masters at Webster University. Im excited to get to know the couchsurfing community in the area as well as host when I have the right place to do so.

PHILOSOPHY

As long as you're happy and make people happy, you're truly living life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I intend to attend events and get to know my fellow couch surfers around Amsterdam, as well as hopefully get to know those in various countries through couch surfing as well. I also plan to find out the rules and regulations of my flat to determine if I will be able to become a host myself.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While I have yet to have my first couch surfing experience, I have been able to meet many international people through my experiences here in Amsterdam, and I have been blown away by the experiences I've had with them. They opened my eyes to the world and gave me a new understanding of it. I hope to have similar experiences with those I am fortunate enough to meet through my couch-surfing adventures

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living in Amsterdam and visiting Israel are probably the most amazing things I've done. Both completely changed my perspective on life and the world, and have created far more options and possibilities in my life than I can ever hope to recognize. Not to mention the connections Ive met with people who will probably be a part of my life for a long, long time.
