CURRENT MISSION

To learn from everyone and everything.

ABOUT ME

I am an American student currently studying in Cairo, Egypt. With all the travelling I want to do, those pesky little things called classes keep getting in the way :)

I am majoring in Global Justice and minoring in Middle Eastern Studies and Humanitarian Affairs. I am hoping in the future to work on community development, communication and dialogue. Eventually I see myself as a teacher, whether abroad or in the United States.

PHILOSOPHY

If it is not going to matter in 5 minutes, 5 hours, or 5 days...then it is not something to bother worrying about.

Breathe free, hug a tree!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think we are all one people and the socially constructed boundaries we build around eachother can be broken down through sharing our lives and sharing our homes with one another.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just getting started!

Interests

Food. All food. Trying new food...anything food.

My current ambition is to win a competition with my roommate: Who can eat the most jars of Nutella in a semester...I am currently winning, if that says anything about me.
