Fun, liberal, overly-analytical twenty-something living in DC. You can find me traveling, reading, blogging, and drawing when I'm not at work doing health care research/consulting for hospitals on population health/healthcare reform. I've lived all over the East Coast of the US, as well as in Germany and South Africa. I'm all about adventures and trying new things, especially if those things are food or beer.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love the concept of having an instant community no matter where you travel. It's also way easier to find the fun, local spots when you've got a great host.

My first couchsurfing experience was in Philly where I spent the evening enjoying homemade empanadas, beer, and good music and conversation. What more could you want?

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Sandboarding the dunes in Namibia, moving to New York City and enjoying my first rooftop party and the incredible views, taking minibuses to the beaches in South Africa and being awestruck by the color of the sky and the ocean.
