Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Explore the world while I can!
ABOUT ME
I am an easy-going person with a sarcastic sense of humor. I will do whatever it takes to get something done, but procrastination can be my weakness. Generally, I love to help people whether it's a heart-to-heart discussion or simply giving directions.
**Disclaimer: Couchsurfing isn't a dating website. If that's what you're looking for, please don't message me.
PHILOSOPHY
As cliché as the saying has become, we really only get one chance at life. I may as well do what I want with it. So far, I've definitely lived my life to the fullest, and I hope to continue on that path.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am moving to The Netherlands for a 1.5 year master's program. Looking to meet local people and also see if people can help me find a place to live!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I hosted about a dozen people in my apartment in Houston, Texas and loved every minute of it! When I lived in Lebanon, I attended a few CS events and met a lot of great people, which is how I heard about it. CS is such a wonderful opportunity to meet like-minded people from all over the world and make lasting connections.
