About Me

I fancy myself an adventurer. I'm a Zoology student, so I'm love getting out of the house to spend time in forest, zoo aquariums, etc. I'm also the type of person that loves to get outside of my comfort zone and try new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just love to get recommendation of things to do and places to go that the locals love. I also love meeting new people and swapping stories.

Interests

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While living in Afghanistan I had the privilege of helping out at a Hazaran all-girl orphanage. It honestly changed my life, as cliche as that sounds.

Teach, Learn, Share

I spent 6 years in the Army, so I can definitely teach people to pack their backpacks more efficiently.

My guests are free to use my home as their own. Help yourself to the food, shower, communal laundry room, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook some tasty vegetarian dishes. I'm also not opposed to helping around the house, if you need.

I'm also a fairly experienced traveler, and I have no issues teaching folks a thing or two.

Countries I’ve Visited
