I'm originally from the Virginian suburbs of Washington DC, but I'm currently living in Tokyo. I lived in different parts of Virginia for the first 28 years of my life, and then moved to Munich, Germany. After living in Germany for 6 months, I moved to Seattle. I have an incredible passion for music, food, movies, and books. I also love traveling, and learning about other cultures. Humor is also a big part of my personality, because I think life is too short to not be laughing most of the time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on CS to learn more about other cultures while traveling.
