I grew up in a farming town in the US, and have spent the last seven years living in Los Angeles. I enjoy making the most out of the little moments in life, and finding new ways to live a healthy lifestyle.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've stayed in many hostels, guesthouses, and hotels before but I prefer to couchsurf because it is a much better way to connect with other people, experience cultures, and make local friends.
