Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Cultural immersion and people learning
ABOUT ME
I am a Humanities major at San Francisco State University. I take things seriously but I am not a serious person. I have an easily applicable sense of humor and can get along with almost anyone. I love to speak different languages and learn more. I love to meet to new people and go new places.
PHILOSOPHY
I am a humanitarian by nature. I believe that we all live on this earth together and might as well make the most of it for everyone. Wealth is generated internally.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am willing to share my couch in San Francisco when I am in town.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have spent many a night on couches of friends. Me and couches are like springs in a bed.
Interests
I enjoy traveling while experiencing different cultures and languages. I also enjoy speaking French and improving my Spanish. I come from a roommate environment and understand the importance of being tidy. I spend most of my time studying but enjoy being social. I look forward to surfing your couch!
