About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To get better at Chinese and explore the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm a really social person and I get bummed out if I don't have people around me a lot of the time. I'm also energetic, like to go out and grab drinks, but also to explore different cultures of the places I travel to.

Currently I work at a vineyard while I await a Peace Corps assignment. I don't have a couch to offer but am more than happy to offer advice on places to see and meet up with fellow couchsurfers.

PHILOSOPHY

Viticulture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't have a couch but I have participated in planning for activities in the Couch Surfing Community in Dali, China, and in Beijing. Have met some great people through Couch Surfing and hope to keep meeting them in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couch Surfing community member in Dali and Beijing, China. Worked on running events out of a friend's bar.

Interests

Seeing more of the world, making new friends, getting a job that allows me to travel even more than I do now. Spending more time in Europe.
