ABOUT ME
I'm a recent college graduate, I enjoy Olympic-style weightlifting, and I spend way more time than I should looking at photos of dogs.

PHILOSOPHY
Everything you do- no matter how small- should be done at 100%

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To turn strangers into friends, practice my language skills, and get a good grip on the many methods of traveling!

Interests

My degree is in Middle Eastern and North African studies, so I spend a lot of time immersed in that. I also enjoy Olympic weightlifting and hiking on the weekends.
