Hi, I'm Abby! I grew up in Southern California. I graduated from college in 2017 with a bachelors in mathematics, then worked with a national service organization called City Year AmeriCorps in Texas for a year. Now, I'm traveling around the world as much as I can before I depart for service in the Peace Corps. My plan is to apply for graduate school in the U.S. after my service ends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm somewhat new to traveling. I heard great things about this app from various fellow travelers. It seems like an excellent resource for someone looking to explore somewhere new and unfamiliar. What better way to get to know a place than through it's locals! I'm looking forward to trying it out, and hopefully hosting people in the future when I settle down and find a place to call my own.

Too many to name! I wouldn't even know where to start.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have lots of experience teaching swimming and surfing lessons to people of all ages. I have also tutored in math, Chinese (Mandarin), and Origami. Let me know if you're interested! :)
