ABOUT ME

I graduated from UC Berkeley in 2009 with a biology degree. Since then I've been working in science research and traveling on my free time. I'll be going to medical school in 2012.
I'm very social and friendly. Always looking for things that are intellectually stimulating and experiences that can teach me something.

PHILOSOPHY

Be kind to others. Give more than you receive.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have yet to host, having only joined a couple months ago, but after having had some really great experiences being hosted, I hope to pay it forward when returning home by hosting other couchsurfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hesitantly joined couch surfing not really knowing what to expect. After now having couch surfed a fair amount of times, I can honestly say that it has been and will continue to be a life changing experience.

Couch surfing has enabled me to meet locals as well as other travelers from all around the world. I have been astounded by the generosity of people opening up their homes and humbled by their warmth in hospitality. Couch surfing has given me faith in humanity and I am extremely grateful to have been apart of the community.
