CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world, make the world a better place, be a good person, and contribute something to society.

ABOUT ME

I am from California! I love life and meeting new people. I'm just happy to be seeing new places and things all the time. I study anthropology and enjoy learning about other cultures and ways of life. I want to see the real side of the places I go from locals who know it best. Finally graduated from UC Santa Cruz so I will be again exploring... this time mostly doing work exchange with my boyfriend David.

Here is his cs profile -- brand spankin' new:

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't watch much movies but I love Quentin Tarantino films - reservoir dogs and pulp fiction, you know. I love A clockwork orange, moonrise kingdom, Austin Powers, Step Brothers, The Game. it's too hard to think of titles. I really enjoy foreign films, scary movies, and mystery or suspenseful movies.

Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, Catcher in the Rye. I love reading ethnographies, mystery books, classics, and I am open to everything!

I love a little bit of all music, I enjoy classic rock, reggae, Motown, modern rock, some edm -house, deep house, trap, some rap or hip hop, 90s rap, anything with good vibes~

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiked from Albania to Slovenia and back around to Turkey! Most amazing two and a half months ever!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can offer my thoughts on many things and offer open ears and mind to have open discussions and conversations. I can offer any help around the house and cooking (although maybe I'm better at dish duty) I want to learn about new places and people and I will offer any knowledge or skills I have!

I try to learn something from everyone and share what I can, all about reciprocation!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Some good stories, a bottle of wine (or 2), I can try to cook, and just all together good vibes! Plus of course any help you need around the house, food, whatever I can do to leave the house better than when I came!
