Back in Los Angeles after 4 years in Washington DC. When I'm not working you'll often find me at a coffee shop somewhere catching up on life. Love spending time with friends and exploring all that the world has to offer. I'm very open-minded and love trying new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I thought it would be a great way to meet people from all over the world. I don't have any plans of traveling abroad at the moment, but I'd like to have options of where to stay when I decide to.

Interests

I enjoy working with non profits that help at risk youth. Some of my interests include swimming, waterpolo, reading, the Spanish language, American Sign Language, music, the beach, hiking, and coffee. Huge dodgeball fan here.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After college, I spent 3 months abroad in Peru teaching English. Best 3 months of my life. It truly changed me and the way I see the world. I've been working with non profit organizations since my return. I made some life long friends during this chapter of my life, and I'm very grateful that I had such an opportunity.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to host guests from other counties, as I appreciate learning about other cultures and languages. It's okay if you don't speak English, because I'm confident that we'll both learn each others language by the time you leave. I truly believe that life is about learning something new every single moment, and I'd appreciate it If you can add to my learning.
