About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet people and have fun!

ABOUT ME

A little about me. I grew up in Manhattan Beach, CA. After several years in school in San Diego CA, Eugene Oregon and a year stint in Seattle Washington I moved back to Southern Cal. I missed the weather and family/friends too much.

I like to study anything and everything (always curious about the world we live in). I read philosophy (ethics mostly), play guitar/bass (poorly), bike ride the local beaches and study languages (German and a little Spanish). I am currently in physical therapy school in San Marcos, California, USA.

PHILOSOPHY

Be kind. Always try to improve.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have only hosted guests but plan on traveling soon. I have to admit that I am more interested in hosting people from countries other than the US. I have nothing against my fellow Americans, but I feel CS should be more about international relations than domestic ones.
