Born and raised in Southern California, moved up to San Francisco in Jan. 2015. Love and passion for culture, language, music, and travel.

Forget an all-inclusive cruise to Cancún, let's go for a hike in Western Mongolia :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I tried this site out and had an amazing two nights in Philadelphia with a person I now consider a dear friend.

To learn about different cultures and language.

Hiking, exploring, finding :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got to see the home of the world's worst nuclear disaster, Chernobyl, and it's abandoned city of Pripyat over in the Ukraine. A place stuck in the soviet era, truly a feeling like no other.

December of 2013 I quit my routine, packed my bags and bought a plane ticket for Sweden. Volunteered on a farm for a couple months there.

Spent the summer of 2015 working in Alaska.

Those are three, whoops!

Teach, Learn, Share

“To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, draw closer, to find each other and to feel. That is the purpose of life.”

Listen more, speak less.

Hopefully not the same tooth brush. But if the bombs drop then I guess we have no other choice :(
