CURRENT MISSION

Explore. Learn. Have fun.

ABOUT ME

People always say they love to travel but I really do LOVE to travel. Couchsurfing has been a great way to travel, even when I'm at home and just hosting! Europe, South America, Africa are continents I've visited and I can't wait to go back for more experiences. I keep a busy life in LA, the city I'm from and love. I enjoy music, movies, laughing, and great conversations.

Looking forward to my next couchsurfing experience in Switzerland in August!

PHILOSOPHY

If you want to sing out, sing out. If you want to be free, be free. - Cat Stevens

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted several times with my former (and still much beloved) roommate La Vida Linda and met some fantastic friends that I still keep in touch with. Life is hectic at the moment, but hopefully someday soon I'll be able to return to hosting.

I've officially surfed in Spain and France but have unofficially been taking up strangers on their kindness while traveling for a couple of years.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Having great conversations with people who I feel I've known for years yet are technically random strangers... a lovely feeling.

Even found my current roommate through hosting!

Teach, Learn, Share

- Like the "instructions" say: It's not about a place to sleep, it's about exchange. Feel free to show your guests around, they might become the nicest people you meet.
- Send postcards! Because real mail is fun.
- Just like in middle school, don't be afraid to be yourself.
