Hi! I'm Moriah, an artist and recent graduate from college in New York. I haven't had the opportunity to do a lot of traveling, due to financial issues and the fact that I've never really NOT been a student, but I'm finally ready to see a little bit more of the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Being able to travel, meet new people, see new places, and experience new and amazing things without having to pay an arm and a leg is a dream come true. I'm such a people person, so having the opportunity to travel and get to know interesting people is what drew me to Couchsurfing.

Interests

I want to be a museum curator who focuses on Islamic art, but as for my other less professional interests:
art and artmaking in general, dance, reading, traveling, foreign films, art history, learning new crafts.

• arts
• dancing
• flamenco
• movies
