Me and my boyfriend Thao are travelling across California this September and looking for lovely people to stay with. We're good cooks, easygoing and can help out around the house. We're looking for places to stay in San Francisco and LA, good tide pooling locations, places near Sequoia Park and anywhere else you'd recommend to see the wildlife in Cali and find some good hikes! Look forward to meeting you :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking from Dana to Petra with a local guide whose only English word was sheep (whilst pointing at a goat) well that was an adventure. Oh and I have many amazingly odd volunteering experiences with Workaway to share with you 😂
