CURRENT MISSION

To broaden my sense of this wondrous world and meet the beautiful personalities that make it so.

ABOUT ME

I am born and raised in Los Angeles, California, but presently live in Santa Barbara. I recently graduated and am interested in language and culture, studied in the fields of linguistics and sociology, and am eager to learn more about people and their varying native tongues during my travels! I am a huge lover of dogs, homemade meals, and cinema. I will be backpacking from September 1st through October 22nd in Italy, France, and Spain, and my mind races on a regular basis imagining all of the incredible people and experiences I will engage.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in being kind and honest, always, even when it is difficult.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have briefly hosted couchsurfers in the past, but cannot host at the moment due to my extraordinarily "cozy" housing, and because I'm not home!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I will be traveling through Italy and Spain with one of my best friends this coming September and we hope to meet as many couch surfers as we can - this is a community built off of trust and kindness, and we are eager to contribute to it!

Interests

I enjoy spicy foods, the smell of my puppy's paws, and smiles that are squinty eyed and toothy. I have recently become more keen on the idea of dancing and I look forward to learning how to move even better (perhaps you'll show me?). I love listening to live music and going on a good hike just before the sun goes down.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite film is Chaplin's "City Lights." I enjoy groovy, soulful music. And I spent all of high school reading all of Bukowski, cover to cover.
