Grew up in Los Angeles but am now living in Berkeley. I have been for about thirteen years now. Open-minded and passionate. I love trying new things and am a huge fan of the arts. I love music, film, photography, and poetry. Also a huge fan of the outdoors: anything hiking, climbing, camping related. If you stay with me I can definitely show you some beautiful places! And if you're a beach fan even better! I'll take you to the beach.
I am a huge food fan. Trying out new restaurants and returning to the great ones is a passion of mine. I'm pretty aware of the amazing places to eat in my town, so if you come, be prepared to try some great food! I'm very into anything social justice related. I love having conversations about pretty much anything and can do so for hours.
I absolutely love sharing and exchanging stories. If they're funny, even better! I'm a very big people person, but also really value alone time. So if I need some I will let you know. And if you do, I will most definitely give you space.
I really love reading and watching movies. So if you've got any recommendations be sure to bring them with you.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin
