I'm a student at University of New Hampshire, currently majoring in Outdoor Education. I love being outside, exploring new places, and finding new perspectives. Whether I'm being hosted by you or hosting you, I'll probably want to talk to you to learn about your worldview.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I mentioned above, I love exploring, learning, and meeting people. Couchsurfing is an excellent way to achieve these goals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to India for three months to study and meditate with monks in a monastery located in the Himalayan foothills.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach basic to advanced cooking techniques or just how to make a dish. I have gone to culinary school and worked as a line cook in Boston for a few years.

I would like to learn: a) current events analysis or b) any weird trick or skill

I want to share the way I see the world (wanderlust, positive attitude, open mind, beauty in the details, etc.) in return for learning about your worldview.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to help and I love to cook. I will, of course, want to explore the city that I'm in, but I would also be very willing to help with tasks around the house or anything else that might need doing. If there's something you've been needing to do but haven't quite gotten motivated to do it, I am happy to be that motivation and to help you do it.
