Originally from Oakland California, I recently graduated from university in Chicago. I'm now in that weird transient state between work and school, where've I've spent the last 6 months in 6 different countries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After traveling for 6 months through South and Central America, I realized that I came to know a new place best when I could connect with a local. These interactions completely changed my experiences, so I felt that rather than vacationing I was truly traveling.
