ABOUT ME
Traveling and meeting new people are among my favorite things - it's really no surprise that I found my way to Couchsurfing! So far, I've been able to travel to over a dozen countries, including living abroad on two occasions. After graduating from university, I lived in Durham (NC) for several years, working as a supervisor for American Red Cross mobile blood drives. I loved my time in the Triangle, and there's a good chance I'll be back. For the time being, I'm in a 2.5 year masters program (physician assistant) in Greenville, so my traveling and hosting are currently on pause. After graduation though, I can't wait to become even more involved in the Couchsurfing community!

PHILOSOPHY

Every person is unique and worth getting to know better. Live simply and go far.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couchsurfed on several occasions, as well as using HelpX quite frequently over a 6 month trip to Australia/New Zealand. The times I have couchsurfed, I have been amazed by the hospitality and kindness of strangers whom I now consider friends. I'm looking forward to more experiences and meeting more great people!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I worked at a zoo in Australia. Rowing a small rowboat out to 'Lemur Island' and being swarmed by friendly lemurs every day was one of the coolest experiences!
