I currently study computer science and international relations in Chattanooga Monday - Thursday from 8AM - 5PM. I am a bit busy during the day, but after classes I would love to show folks around the great city of Chattanooga. You can enjoy various things such as hiking, photography, coffee drinking, art museums, scenic drives, delicious food, skydiving, and pretty much anything else!

I believe meeting the same person twice is a possibility; therefore, every meeting is important and there's not enough time to be wasted upon unwanted angry feelings. Enjoying life to the fullest is something I aim for but I'm also one who likes doing the whole, "winging it".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to visit new places while experiencing the city through another traveler's/native's eyes. Plus, it seems like a great way to meet people who have similar interests!

Interests

Photography, food blogging(and eating), coffee shop hopping (Chattanooga has one pretty much everywhere), ballroom dancing, listening to live jazz (every WEDNESDAY), sharing travel stories, learning new about new cultures, hiking, exploring, and learning new skills are just a few of my interests. I might not turn out to be so great at the skill, but my mission in life is to keep learning.

Music, Movies, and Books

Not much into movies or books, but I do love putting my iTunes on shuffle for a good 4 hours and listen to just about anything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I mean, living and studying in Japan for a whole year before the age of 21 was pretty amazing to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Currently studying Japanese and Java Programming, so if you need some help in computer related topics, I could maybe help out. I lived in Japan for a year on a study abroad program, so I really enjoy hearing about others who have traveled around as well. I also love going to old hardware stores and finding cheap treasures in the bins.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We could go eat, drink, shop, explore, or if you just need someone to drag along, then I am your host! Also, if you need someone to pick you up, say from a night of too much drinking, just hit me up!
