Hi, I'm 23 years old and living in SF. I moved to San Francisco when I was 17, before that I lived in a small city closer to Los Angeles. I have a degree in Geology, I love the outdoors and have been camping all over California and Oregon, Washington, Utah, Arizona, and Nevada. I live to explore, but also can be perfectly content at home with wine, good food and friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Recently, my friends & I were floating down the Russian River when we came across a group of people - all from different countries and all having the most fun there. One was from China, one from Brazil, and one from Turkey, and it turns out they had all met through Couchsurfing.

I decided to join because not only do we want to be having the most fun, but I also want to welcome people to our city and share with them the little secrets of San Francisco that only a local would know. I also want to support the art of traveling on a budget. Lastly, I hope to travel one day and have familiar faces to run into during my travels.
