Most of the time I'm a daydreamer, a traveler, a movie buff/critic, a lover of nature and the outdoors, of DIY projects, of team sports and of a good laugh. The rest of the time, I'm a PhD student studying International Development in the United Kingdom. At the best of times, all of these things overlap. I'm jovial and open minded, and I tend to enjoy puzzling tasks, good conversation, or silent work. I'm good at carrying heavy stuff, interacting with new people, editing written work, and offering encouraging feedback. I'm not particularly great at math, but thats what makes calculators wonderful. Couch-surfing is, for me, an opportunity to escape my regular schedule, to enjoy an unfamiliar location with a close friend, and to meet new people and animals :)
