I'm currently a senior philosophy student on the East coast. I'm trying to figure out what to do next year, and with the rest of my life (nbd). I'm trying to find the right balance between being personally fulfilled and doing as much good as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Unfortunately my current living situation doesn't allow me to host anyone, but I'm hoping to still take advantage of some kinder people and their couches! I also love going to couchsurfing events to meet cool travelers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A couple summers ago I couchsurfed in Germany and Austria and had an great time meeting extraordinarily generous and interesting hosts. Then last summer I want to try something a little off the beaten path and couchsurfed in Tunisia. I was amazed by the kindness of the people I met, and of how excited they were to show off their country!

Interests

Currently studying philosophy in school, so thats a big one. My first love was music, I sing opera, play piano and compose a little bit. I also like hiking and vegan cooking (I am a vegan, but I'm perfectly comfortable being around non-vegans and am always willing to have a civil conversation about my beliefs/lifestyle to those who are interested!).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent two weeks working on a farm through HelpX, playing jazz with my host, and going on hikes with his amazing dogs.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to teach some basic singing technique or how to play blues (seriously, playing blues is so easy its sad more people can't do it!)
