Always trying to learn new things, particularly language, culture, and history outside of the western context. I love meeting new people and sharing good food and conversations. I’m looking to travel and give what I can to this world.

I live in a house with all women, so only accepting requests from women.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've traveled a bit and have been at the receiving end of so many kind people. I love meeting new people and would love to pay it forward and host some wayward travelers who come through my parts. I think everyone has a story to tell and I love listening. Also, I genuinely believe in the commons and believe that sharing is such a radical act in itself.

Although I've lived in four very different parts of the world, I haven't visited many countries and am looking to change that.
