I am a 2nd year PhD student in my 30s! A bit late on the "see the world wagon" but trying to remedy that. I love anything outdoorsy - hiking, scuba diving, paddle boarding or bird watching (except skiing. My first time was disastrous). Basically, I'm a complete heliophile! Also, I am a bigtime foodie.

I love animals and so I am vegan and trying to be a minimalist.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
