I am a Biological Sciences student studying at Cal Poly SLO on the central coast of California. I was born and raised on a llama ranch in a very very small town in the Eastern Sierra mountain range of California. I love the outdoors, mountains, kayaking, trekking and backpacking, and anything about biology/science. I am studying abroad in Nepal and trekking through the himalayan lowlands for 6 weeks before I continue traveling through Asia through the end of November 2018.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In my previous study abroad experience in Santiago, Chile some of my favorite moments were sparked from Couchsurfing. Meeting locals and enjoying their beautiful homes, towns, and cities from their perspective is priceless and I honestly believe it is the best way to travel.
