I am currently a graduate student, pursuing a Ph.D. in English, at the University of Washington, which means I get to live in the beautiful city of Seattle. When I'm not teaching or working on my degree, I enjoy traveling, hiking, yoga, cooking and baking, reading, and, most recently, embroidery. I spent a semester of my undergrad in London and a summer in Botswana.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am currently a grad student and have to travel for conferences, in addition, to traveling for fun. Making travel possible of a grad school stipend is exceedingly difficult though. Couchsurfing, for me, lets me get to know cool people from around the world while also making travel more possible on my current income.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I once drove a donkey cart in a small village in Botswana. I was not very good at it.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I share my knowledge of Southern American culture, the French I know, and lots of information about Victorian British poetics. I'm also up for cooking a meal!
