I am a traveler who likes to explore, meet new people, try new foods and really get a sense of places I travel. I have lived in a variety of countries from Turkey to South Africa to Costa Rica and feel passionate about understanding cultures through meeting people. I lived in Costa Rica three years as a Peace Corps Volunteer, and now have come back to Washington, DC to complete my Masters degree and work in the international development field.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I want to be able to see cities and places for what they are -- learning from perspectives of locals! I'm not much of a "resort" type, so I figured this could be neat to try!
