Overview
About Me
I am a student in college who is absolutely passionate about going out and exploring the world. To me, travel is everything. I love learning about new cultures, and making friendships that last a lifetime with people from all over the world. I truly feel that spending all of your time in one place is a surefire way to live a life with tunnel vision.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am on Couchsurfing because I have had it recommended to me by so many different people. I have gone to meetups in my city (Tampa) and the people there were absolutely some of the nicest people I have ever met in my life. I figured if I could find people so caring and open minded in my own city through this network, imagine the amazing people I could find in other parts of the world?
Interests
I am interested in the field of medicine, as well as computer programming and web development. I am interested in (obviously) traveling as much as I possibly can. Most of all, I love to learn. I spend every minute I possibly can trying to learn something, anything. I firmly believe that the more knowledge you gain, the more beautiful this world becomes.

Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach Arabic, and Chinese (whatever I know of Chinese anyways), I love to learn absolutely anything -- any new skill is not wasted time.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can teach you as much Arabic as you possibly could want to know. I could help out with various chores and errands around the house, and I could pretty much have a great time with you!
