I'm on couch surfing for the same reasons as everyone else. When traveling, I like to spend time really getting to know a place and its people before I move on. I'm very interested in plants and agriculture so whenever I get a month or so of free time I like to spend it working on farms in places I haven't been to before. One of the things I'm most interested in when I travel is how the plant life changes from place to place. Every time I go somewhere new I try to find somewhere I can spend time in nature. When I'm at home I love to spend my weekends working in my garden and going to concerts. Currently I work as a chemical engineer, which is so interesting mathematically, and provides a great challenge when it comes to trying to change the industry for the better.
