CURRENT MISSION

Discover, learn, and explore the world as much as possible- and make some friends along the way!

ABOUT ME

Hello! My name is Katrina Rochlin and I am 20 years old. I am a from sunny Los Angeles , but I live near San Francisco where I go to university at UC Berkeley, studying Public Health and Psychology.

I am currently studying abroad in London! Never a dull moment in this vibrant city! It has been such a thrill going on weekend trips and week long excursions to new and exciting places in the UK and in Europe.

My study abroad program ends in May (unsure about the exact date at the moment) and I will be traveling around and hopefully couch-surfing all of June until early July.

I am buzzing with wanderlust. I want meet new people, experience different cultures (and food!) and explore the world as much as possible. I can't wait for the adventures that await!

PHILOSOPHY

Buy the ticket, take the ride.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love yoga and hope to become a certified teacher in the near future. I would LOVE to share my yoga knowledge with the couch-surfing community

I also love to cook! At UC Berkeley (my home university) I live in a co-op where I used to cook meals for 30+ people each week so I would be so glad to share my recipes and cook for my couchsurf hosts

Adding on to that, I would love to learn new recipes and cooking from my hosts.
