Hey there,

I am a recent graduate of the University of Georgia, where I studied international relations, with a regional speciality in Latin America. I love to travel, eat, and learn languages. I've lived in Singapore and in a few cities in the U.S., including New York, Chicago, and Atlanta. I just finished a year based in Mexico City on a grant to work and study but you can now find me in Washington, DC. I'm looking forward to traveling and enjoying the CouchSurfing experience -- I'm always happy to make a new friend, share travel stories, and learn from you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have really enjoyed traveling and building connections with locals and those who know the area.
