CURRENT MISSION

I am now traveling through Girona and Barcelona with my girlfriend on a couples trip, and we’re hoping to meet new friends and learn a bit about Spanish culture and food!

ABOUT ME

- please only reach out to me if want to make friends and are LBGTQ friendly! :)

I am from the Bay Area, and love to travel! In recent years I haven't been able to do this much due to my career, but am looking forward to now have the opportunity to get out and explore again soon!

After making my way through several countries in Europe, all over Southeast Asia and living in Taipei for Taiwan for over a year, I am now living in the Bay Area, in Oakland.

I love active sports, trying new foods, drawing and writing, and definitely am always open to meet new and exciting people.

I love to live in the moment as much as possible in sometimes wild and spontaneous ways, sometimes dull and slightly boring ways. I am always willing to go out and explore, and appreciate finding that same enthusiasm in others. However, I am still a very polite and considerate house-guest and hostess :)

PHILOSOPHY

live life to the fullest, try make the most of what you have, always be kind to the people around you, and never ever consider the negative judgment of others- always be true to exactly who you are.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted a few surfers while living in Taiwan, and have also met some of my closest friends through the site!

Algo increíble que he hecho

oh goodness...I feel like there are so many individual and special experiences I could list here! how to choose..?!?

hiking on the great wall of china at sunrise was particularly wonderful, scuba diving in the Philippines was so much fun, finishing the Honolulu Marathon for Team in Training was also quite exhilarating, visiting the ruins at Angkor Wat in Cambodia was absolutely amazing, moving to Taiwan alone was exciting and scary and incredible, climbing up waterfalls in the Dominican Republic was fantastic!
