About Me

I graduated from UC Berkeley with a degree in Computer Science and am now doing a Masters degree in Grenoble, France. I love travel and see the world and am really open minded about most things. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a couchsurfing newbie but I love the idea and would love to get more involved, including hosting when I get my own flat. I also enjoy traveling alone.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The salt flats in Bolivia. I love urban settings but nature, in the end, is what manages to completely take my breath away.

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is a balancing act between living in the moment and investing in your future.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company. Or not if it's not wanted! I would say I'm an outgoing introvert so I don't mind being alone at all but I am social and love meeting new people. In the end, it's never really about the places I've been but more about the people I've met.
