About Me

I'm a San Diego native who wants to travel anywhere and everywhere, meet all sorts of people, and experience new things. I'm friendly and I love to laugh and joke around. I'm terrible with names and can be pretty absent-minded but I'm working on it. I can be sarcastic but it's never mean spirited, I promise haha. Lets meet and you can be disappointed firsthand... haha

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach?
Well, I probably have more to learn than teach but if you're interested in learning some Spanish, I could teach you words and phrases.

Learn?
I want to learn anything you want to teach me... phrases and words from your native tongue, how to cook your favorite foods, aspects of your culture, and anything and everything else you want to share.

Share?
Hoping to share quality time, good conversations, and maybe a drink or two? Music, film, and book suggestions as well!
