Language learner, food lover, and adventurer living in the Bay Area! During the day I coordinate an after school program that empowers girls via sports. Outside of that I love to meet new people, explore the city on foot, and do ice cream tours of new places.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

If you have a unicycle, or are visiting me in the Bay, I'm happy to give lessons. I am learning guitar. And I am happy to speak English, French or Spanish (and potentially really slow, beginner level Mandarin) with you.
