I'm from America and I am living in Annandale, Virginia. I am 25 years old and I have travelled to many different countries throughout Europe and the Middle East. I love to have fun and experience new places. Meeting new people is one of my favorite things! I am very open minded and easy going. Always down for exciting new adventures!
I am not religious at all. But I love learning about them!

I speak fluent English.
I know a good amount of Arabic (reading, writing, speaking) and some basic Kurdish.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I worked with Yazidi refugees in the Kurdish Region of Iraq for 2 months. I learned so much about them and their struggle. A true life changing experience to be with people who have lost so much but still smile and welcome you like a member of their family.
Recently wrote an article about their struggle. Click the link to check out a PDF version - https://operationhumanfreedom.files.wordpress.com/2016/06/wings-of-hope-a-yazidi-and-his-story1.pdf

Back in 2012 I went cliff jumping in the Verdon Gorge in the south of France near Italy. It was such a beautiful place and an amazing experience. Loved it. Click the link to check it out - http://www.beyond.fr/sites/verdon.html
