CURRENT MISSION

I want to learn something new and make someone smile every day

ABOUT ME

I'm 31, very happy with life, definitely not bored. Love meeting people, love exploring new places, reading books, making music, hanging out with my friends and my dog, and doing things I haven't done before. I'm not a partier or big drinker. Love talking about ways to live more honestly in the world, and I love to be challenged by people smarter/wackier/more radical than me. Just finished a double Masters degree in international affairs and urban planning, and managed to get employed in my (for the moment, at least) dream job.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short and people are good.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm away for work travel for the first few months of 2013; hope to host more when I return.

I get WAY more requests than I can respond to, sorry! I also often host non-CouchSurfing couchsurfers (if that makes sense), so I'm sorry if I'm unresponsive.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met some wonderful friendly people through CS, and have surfed with people who had nothing to do with this site, but haven't combined the two yet. Can't wait to actually surf and host, and hopefully get involved in the Boston CS community.

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

Being with a friend as she gave birth. Hands down, most amazing thing ever.
