ABOUT ME

I am a fun loving, happy, and down to earth person who is looking to meet new friends. I'm pretty chill and always up for an adventure. I'm currently a Teacher in Shanghai and it's a wild adventure! I am from the Bay Area in California.
Basically, I love Harry Potter and mermaids.

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to live a life where I look back and feel like I accomplished my dreams/goals. Doing my best to spread a little more kindness in the world. Currently trying to cross as many things off my bucket list as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people, learn about their culture and make connections from all over the world.

Interests

I enjoy beach combing, collecting sea glass, geocaching, reading Harry Potter, cuddling with dogs, exploring the hidden gems of the world, hiking to waterfalls, swimming, kayaking, snorkeling, trying new food, sitting outside on warm summer nights, and making new friends.
