ABOUT ME

I'm a full time student at the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida, in the good old United States of America. I love to travel and meet new people--but then again who doesn't?

I have lived in Philadelphia, PA, Boston, MA, Tampa, FL and now in Gainesville, FL for school. I am an Industrial & Systems Engineering major hoping to work in the transportation industry.

Additionally, in order to take advantage of my time in college and passion for traveling/experiencing new cultures, I am studying abroad from January until May 2010 in Nice, France.

PHILOSOPHY

I live it up every single day with a positive attitude and headstrong philosophy. Seeing this world is a gift and the more traveling I do the more I appreciate it.

Another major personal mantra is to take a train--no matter where it's going. The destination does not matter, rather the excitement is in the journey itself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to meet new people during my travels via couch surfing. In my opinion the best way to experience an adventure. As far as a place of my own, I do not have one in Gainesville as I am not in town but will in August!
