CURRENT MISSION

I currently am focusing on my art practice and balancing it with the other parts of my life that I love!

ABOUT ME

I graduated from UC Berkeley two years ago and have been working in the art field mainly. I make zines and comics with friends and am active in the Bay Area zine scene. I am a print maker and drawer too.

PHILOSOPHY

I truly believe that life is what you make it. Your outlook changes your experience! I believe that everything happens for a reason, in some inexplicable way. So I try to stay positive and take on new experiences that come my way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Studying abroad gave me the opportunity to use Couchsurfing for the first time, and since then I am trying to stay involved in any way I can. I recently moved to a new house in Oakland and am excited to be able to host people in my cool new house.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had lovely experiences surfing in Spain and Germany and got to meet some really great people. I hope to continue!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to the Moroccan desert with my sister and put my bare feet in the sand, looked at the billion stars in the sky around a huge fire with people from all over the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love languages and would love to both teach and learn in that department. I can also help you be more artistic, learn how to draw, make zines, make delicious dinners, including the craziest salad you've ever had, homemade pizza dough, curries, to name a few, and show you new music.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my love of meeting new interesting folks, my willingness to help with cool projects, love to cook and clean up afterwards, share new music, cool artists, good books, and good company!
