About Me

Run of the mill university student and aspiring diplomat/foreign service officer.

MOTTO IN LIFE
"Nobody exists on purpose, nobody belongs anywhere, everybody's gonna die. Come watch TV." - Morty

I am a huge fan of cats, and love to drink whiskey, but the Yuzu Sours I had in Shinjuku almost made me change my mind.

Cities I've lived in:
San Francisco
Seattle
Las Angeles
Las Vegas
San Jose
Anaheim
Tokyo
Kyoto
Osaka
Nara

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really just want to make some friends with locals. From what I've heard about couch surfing from friends, there's a lot of trust required on both sides so I think that really expediates and lessens the time it takes to get to know someone.

Some of my longest standing friendships have been made with travelers who have only spent a couple of months in the city, but when I met up with them in their home town after they had moved back, it was like nothing has changed.

I hope I can offer that kind of experience to you, and create a lasting friendship out of our time, and if not, at least be thankful for the chance meeting we had.
