I have just finished my degree in Biochemistry and am currently taking some time off from work and school to explore and grow. I will likely go back to school to pursue a career in renewable energies or possibly medicine. I love meeting new people, learning new languages and sharing my life stories and experiences with others. I love sports and hiking and I am a very active person. I am also very respectful and open minded of the tendencies of others and would be happy to learn about different lifestyles.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As much as I enjoy staying in hostels, I also enjoy connecting with locals who know the area and culture well. I like to get to know people who have lived in the area and experience life that is more typical of the region.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have a paper being published for my work with environmental DNA this year. I have also been bungee jumping.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can help teach English and my French and Spanish skills may also help with communication. I would love the opportunity to learn Portuguese or any other language!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a very clean, respectful and positive person and I would be happy to help with any chores/cooking that need to be done as well.
