If I had a different living situation, I would love to host travelers, until then, interested in meet and chats.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couch surfed in La Serena, Chile, Pucón, Chile, Punta Arenas, Chile, and Buenos Aires, Argentina, Medford, Oregon, and had great experiences with all of my hosts.

Interessen

I like to yoga, hike, run, garden, snowboard/ski, camp, backpack, and some. Learning about different cultures. I've held internships in Santiago, Chile, working on a sustainable development project, and in Santa Cruz, Ca, helping resolve barriers to housing with people experiencing homelessness. I also interned with the Democracy Council in Los Angeles, Ca, working with the Latin American department on independent, community-based media projects with Cuban communities on the island and abroad. I've been a research assistant focusing on agro-ecology in Peru.
