Overview
About Me
I am an adventurous person who loves traveling. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA, USA. I graduated from the University of California, Riverside in the summer of '16. Then I packed my bags and moved to South Korea for 1.5 years to teach English. I completed my contract and backpacked through Southeast Asia for 3 months. I did a 1 year working holiday in Australia and New Zealand! Now I'm moving abroad again. This time to Alicante, Spain! I love meeting like minded people, trekking, photography, and being spontaneous.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I travel often, so having a place to stay the night while enjoying a new city is awesome, especially while hanging out and exploring with a local! I don't mind couches at all as long as I have somewhere to sleep at night. Meeting new, like minded people and hearing some of their stories is also pretty cool.
Interests
I am a part time explorer who loves the outdoors, hiking, and traveling. I am very active and love working out. Visiting new historical landmarks and cities is a passion of mine. I also really enjoy playing sports, especially basketball and baseball. Photography is another major passion of mine. I enjoy taking photos of everything from nature to sports photos.
