I am a school counselor and teacher. I’ve worked abroad for 3 years in Paraguay (South America). I have traveled through volunteer programs, school, with friends, and also for work. My favorite thing about traveling is seeing all the colors and landscapes of a new place. I love to eat food, shop for trinkets, and take adventures. Before living abroad in Asuncion, I always dreamed what it would be like to live in another country. I stayed with a family for a few days in Colombia and for three weeks in Quito. I realized that staying with locals of the city is a much cooler experience! But I do love the hostel and hotel life as well!

I would love to share some fun things with new people in San Diego, my favorite city in the world.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a beach cruiser and 2 stand up paddle boards. Could also arrange for different hiking trips around San Diego. Live close enough to a trolley stop. Walking distance to the beach and the bay. Great beach town with tons of stuff to do!
