Hello! I am a college student from Phoenix, Arizona. I grew up in Tucson, in the beautiful Sonoran desert, and moved to Phoenix to study dance at Arizona State University. I have lived in Arizona my whole life, but traveled outside of it often.

I love: dancing and being active, spending time outdoors, meeting new people, cooking and eating good food, swapping stories with strangers, and being in the sunlight.

I hope we can meet and talk soon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to connect to real people when I travel in a meaningful way. Couchsurfing is a way to build relationships when traveling that go beyond commercial transactions.

Although I am new to Couchsurfing, I have been a traveler and guest in many places: visiting friends in Australia and Colombia; as a volunteer with Amigos de las Américas in Costa Rica; as a WWOOFer in China, and as a dance teacher in Panama. Through these experiences, I have learned how to be a good guest:
-Be flexible
-Clean up after yourself
-Communicate!
-Share something of yourself with your host

I am excited to connect to the international community through Cpuchsurfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I am learning Spanish and am eager to practice, teach, or learn from you! I love to cook healthy, colorful, vegetarian food for others. I am a dancer and always love sharing that with others, whether through video, photos, a short demonstration, or teaching.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share food, good conversation, and a connection to someone in Arizona.
Unfortunately, because I rent my home right now, under the lease that I have I may not accept couchsurfers. However, I am still happy to meet up with you, host for dinner, or help you get your bearings in Arizona.
