Trying to always look on the bright side. I believe that novelty and discovery are the keys to happiness, so I try to keep that in mind all the time. Currently living in my hometown, so trying to act like a tourist here too!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love everything about the philosophy behind CS. Meeting new people; being exposed to all sorts of people, experiences, and ideas; making it easier for people to travel the world...!

I have couchsurfed in Switzerland, Austria, Iceland, and New Zealand and have met some great people who have shown me some fantastic things. I'm always pleasantly surprised by how open and generous everyone is!

I started hosting in 2014, and it has been so amazing. I met one of my best friends through CS and hope to make many more!

教，学，和分享

I think pretty much anything is awesome. I'm always up for exploring! I love learning new stuff, so pretty much *anything* you want to teach, I'd be so down to learn.

I can try to teach some piano, ukulele or (the smallest bit of) guitar. Let's trade playlists!

I'm kind of obsessed with language, and would love to attempt to converse with surfers in English, Spanish, French, or Italian.

I've hiked on virtually every trail that exists in my county. If you come visit me, I can take you on some good hikes and/or to some good beaches! If you're vegan, I will show you all the great spots!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

If anyone is trying to learn English, I can offer some help!
I make pretty good guacamole =)
A reciprocal offer of hosting if they ever come to California!
