About Me

I am a 25 year old, twenty something wandering my way through this new conundrum social observers are calling "Prolonged adolesence." Though, I like to think that, "Not all who wander are lost." I have graduated from University with a very applicable degree in Food Science, but I'm not exactly a worker bee. I am constantly looking for ways to use my expensive credibility (aka a degree) as a scientist to explore new cultures through food and meeting new people, and how I can bring a little of what I learn back home someday and share it with the people I love and build a more globally aware community. More importantly though, I love a lot of things people love; from Star Wars to pretending I know how to eat Pho, and dreaming about all of the exciting places in the world I want to see.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'll be home around Philly for the foreseeable future and I want to support people who want to travel the area. I am also looking to explore much of the world myself and Couchsurfing is consistently listed as one of the best community sharing organizations. I'm really looking forward to truly building new friendships and forging unforgettable memories.
