HOSTING:
I am looking forward to hosting travelers (I prefer travelers in single, but would consider double in specific circumstances) of the world who would like to have a genuine experience in San Diego, California with an enriched cultural experience! I have been blessed with having gracious hosts who have made my experience in the U.S. and foreign countries amazing, and I would like to give back to the CS community!

ABOUT JON:
I am a doctor/physician and love my job! The best part of it is making people feel better and healthier. Obviously, my job is demanding and I spend time working both at the hospital and home, and I would appreciate you considering this during your stay.
If my schedule allows, I would be excited to show you local spots including food and bars, or other amazing things. However, sometimes my work schedule will make me busy and I would hope you would understand and be able to be independent-- with my suggestions for places to go of course!

I'm a very open minded guy, always up for spontaneous activities.

MY PLACE:
I have a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom stand alone home in the Mission Hills/Downtown area of San Diego. You would be able to occupy the guest room and own bathroom . I do have a den in the main floor that I do work out of.
I have my own bed and bathroom floor, and would be generous with sharing the living room, kitchen and expansive patio!
I can help with clean towels and sheets.

LOCATION IN SAN DIEGO:

I am located in the near the downtown Little Italy area of San Diego, which I think is the best area of San Diego! It is close to the airport and 5 highway, and also close to Gaslamp and convention center. It is convenient to get around with public transportation or Uber/Lyft!

REFERENCES:
For safety, it is important that you have references. Social media may be acceptable to ensure that you are trusthworthy, I hope you understand.

HOUSE RULES:

Please be clean up after yourself, provide your own food, and be respectful. My preference is to host people who are open-minded and have the vision of couchsurfing in mind and want to experience other cultures and ways of life!

**For safety reasons I do not give out keys for entrance and exit to my place and I ask that I am there while you are. On weekdays, I have to go to work and I ask that we usually leave by 6:30 AM and I am back home around 7 or 8 PM, which usually works for individuals who can get their day started early and can occupy themselves in San Diego for the whole day!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To help others experience other cultures and enjoy San Diego, which I think is an amazing city!
