I've been in Shanghai studying for about three months now, and I need a place to stay for the next 3, as I cannot live in my student dorm for much longer. I'll be working 5 days a week, and am a pretty relaxed person. I like to keep my things clean, and I will definitely do my part to keep the apartment clean as well. I do like to go out and do things in general, so if you're new to Shanghai I can definitely help show you around!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I need to find a roommate/multiple roommates so we can find an apartment in Shanghai. I would prefer to live in the Jing'an area as that's where my office is, and it is a popular ex-pat spot. I will need it for about 3 months so I will be returning to the states at the end of August.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: to be honest it depends on my mood. I could be listening to EDM one minute, but then I'll turn to some jazz
Movies: Anything that isn't horror I like
Books: Classic literature is my favourite, but I read almost every genre

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I started a foundation giving new school supplies to refugees children in 2009 and have expanded to giving almost 200+ children new school supplies each year.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been traveling my whole life, so I can probably give you lots of tips about traveling and different cultures around the world.
