CURRENT MISSION

Traveling the world while I'm still young

ABOUT ME

I'm a 28 year old looking to have fun and travel while I'm young. My dream job is to do something that involves a lot of traveling to places I have never visited as well as helping people achieve their personal goals. I have a background in finance and currently work in banking.

In high school, I got the chance to study abroad in Turkey on a scholarship, and it gave me a new perspective of the world and a whole new respect for different cultures and ideas. It was pretty awesome living in a city straddling between two continents. Oh and Turkish food is awesome!

PHILOSOPHY

Have fun and be happy. Life goes on without stopping. You only get one. Live it to the fullest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I got a chance to go backpacking through Europe right after graduating college. I visited 9 countries in 4 weeks. I met some amazing people and created memories of a lifetime. It was my first time trying Couchsurfing while in London. In my first Couchsurfing experience, I met up with a local in London and had a pleasant conversation with him. I'd like to hopefully Couchsurf some more during breaks and holidays from work. I see Couchsurfing as a way to expand my mind and meet people all over the world who are open-minded and laid back.

Teach, Learn, Share

Make sure to explore the cuisine of every place you travel. You may be surprised at how delicious foods from different cultures can be. Just don't be afraid to try something new. Close your eyes and enjoy. And if you ever get a chance, try a kabob or some baklava.

If you ever come to Houston and need someone to show you around town, don't be afraid to reach out.
