I am a PhD in Finance with specialization in Asset Pricing (think of stocks and options). I love music and dancing. I play a bit piano and am a whore for Karaoke. I've lived in a few countries and now I live in Chicago. I still think Wales is my favourite country. I love Ramen. I love dogs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I move to a new city, I use it to get started in terms of meeting people and socializing. I will still use it even when I have settled down and have formed a steady group of friends I hang out with. This is because I get to meet really interesting people sometimes. I think it has to do with a nature of wanting to explore. It sounds corny, but so true. Cause I believe we all want to expand our experience of living. I won't go down on that spiritual road, but you now know why I use couchsurfing. Feel me?

Interests

I love music. I also love dancing in general, but in particular Lindy Hop. I would always be up for half-court basketball if we found a place to play.
