CURRENT MISSION

Making the world a positive and healthier place.

ABOUT ME

I love meeting new people and experiencing new cultures. I am very positive and enthusiastic about life and try to live one moment at a time!
I also love being healthy and am passionate about food and cooking. I am currently working on my doctorate degree in Physical Therapy.

PHILOSOPHY

Voici mon secret. Il est très simple: on ne voit bien qu'avec le cœur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux.
-Le Petit Prince

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I have no couch to offer since I am living with my parents, but I love meeting up with people and showing then around LA.
I have stayed with fabulous hosts and I hope that soon I will own an appartment with a couch or an extra bed so that I can return the favor and become a host myself, not just a surfer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met the most wonderful individuals and families through couchsurfing. I have been fortunate enough to have amazing hosts who have provided the most unique and memorable experiences. It is a completely different way to travel because you can actually learn about the culture of the city you are visiting by spending time with locals.

Interests

I have way too many interests! But the top ones are aerial dance, aerial yoga, yoga, musical theatre, eating, hiking, dancing, swimming, bicycling, visiting produce markets, trying new things, and of course experience different cultures.
