Hello couch surfers! I'm currently traveling through Europe with my sister. I've just completed four months of a writing residency in a town near the Monserrat Mountains, just outside of Barcelona. I'm working on (and almost finished with!) my first book of poetry.

I'm born and raised in California, and currently based in the Bay Area.

I'm new to couch surfing, and look forward to meeting some of you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
