ABOUT ME

I live in Jordan and am beginning my new job as the grants manager for IMC soon as I get back from Afghanistan. I love living in Jordan and life here is really sweet. I would say that traveling is probably one of my favorite things in the world and I intend on doing as much of it as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Be as happy as you can be without impeding the happiness of others and to truly succeed in life work to leave the world a better place than the one you came into

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted 12+ people here in Jordan because my roommate had couch surfed in Europe. I had my first couch surfing experience in Iraq and had a fantastic time and amazing hosts. Recently I have added surfing in Qatar and Oman to the list.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While in Yemen I went to a town where all of the buildings were made out of local stones that happened to be blue, green and red. From there I hiked up to a village on a sheer cliff side that was only accessible by walking. Some small girls came out and greeted me and my friends with the best coffee any of us have ever had.
