Quiet until we start talking about travel experiences, film, or music and then I can’t shut up.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

After traveling for 10 months through Europe and Asia and using Couchsurfing in over a dozen countries, I wanted to give back to the community by hosting. I’m also of course looking to share cultures and make new friends.

兴趣

I love learning about philosophy, religion, and other ideologies, both in practice and as thought experiments. Getting to know others of different beliefs and perspectives is one of my favorite things about traveling, as it grows you as a person, and helps you better understand the world.

I love foods from around the world like Italian, Indian, Korean, Thai, and Ethiopian, and am always eager to scout new places wherever I go.

Life is too short. Be kind. Travel if you can.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I would love to help with any housework, cooking, house sitting or anything else to make the generosity of my host not go unreciprocated. And just share my culture and experiences traveling abroad.
