I've been living in LA for almost 5 years now, I moved there from a small town and completely fell in love. But I have crazy wanderlust and I love going new places and meeting new people!

I'm pretty nerdy, I like reading and playing board games, but also love chilling with the TV... Game of Thrones, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, etc. I love going out and dancing, singing at karaoke bars, and hiking or rock-climbing, which I do fairly regularly. The outdoors is pretty great :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To travel, learn about the world, and experience everything I can.

Interests

Exploration, urban exploration, rooftop bars & late-night karaoke, good whiskey, hiking, rock-climbing, and doing things I've never done before. Singing and playing ukulele. Teaching music. Backpacking. Eating really good food.
