I became a couch surfer in 2014, after I finished my bachelor's degrees and left the US to work and travel internationally. Over the past three and a half years, my journey has taken me to China, southeast Asia, central Europe, and now the Middle East; following a wonderful year and a half in Jordan, I am now working and residing in the UAE. I love exploring new places, always planning my next adventure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love building meaningful relationships with people and learning about different cultures! I am relatively new to couchsurfing, but I look forward to the experiences it will bring. In the time I've spent abroad, I've learned that interacting with locals/members of the communities you visit while you travel is one of the most enriching experiences a person can have. I love the way couchsurfing helps us create these connections.

Interests

I am passionate about traveling, photography, and running. I also love learning new languages. Academically, I enjoy studying business/economics, geography, psychology, and health/nutrition.

Currently, I am also looking to improve my cooking/baking skills. I have very little to offer in that area but I really want to learn!
