About Me

Recently returned from a 9 month study abroad program in Copenhagen, Denmark. I'm a Southern California native who currently resides in Orange County, but spends a lot of time in Los Angeles.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing combines two of my passions: meeting locals who will acquaint me to a new place, and traveling on a budget!

I also think it's funny that "traveling" is an interest in Couchsurfing because isn't this a community for those who have found themselves with the travel bug?

Interests

Since I started listening to podcasts, I've began to take interest in topics all across the spectrum. The podcast I'm currently listening to is 99% Invisible, which is about the designed world around us that we tend to overlook.
