Hello :)

I was born and raised in Southern California. I recently finished 4 years of university where I studied Environmental Science & Policy and Documentary Flimmaking. I hope to work towards the promotion of environmental sustainability through film and am also very interested in animal conservation and social activism. I can talk about these things for days so be careful!

I am very outdoorsy and love hiking, camping, scuba diving, and rock climbing. I love a good adventure and trying new things. I’m interested in meeting new people and exchanging cultures, stories, foods, etc.

I’m here to make friends, learn from my hosts/surfers (and hopefully teach as well), and exchange knowledge and energy. I feel blessed to be a part of a community of likeminded and generous people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to meet locals and learn about their culture. Also want to make friends :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music! Lately I've been very into musicians like Gregory Alan Isokov and Mandolin Orange. Very into oldies and bluegrass.
I love a good documentary and I am always down to watch nature/wildlife docs.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungee jumped off of a 134m platform in New Zealand.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn more about life from your perspective and what it’s like to live in your city!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share stories and laughs with my hosts. I’m a jokester and I really love a good conversation - I’m down to talk about anything and everything. I love to cook as well so I would love to help out and make a few of my favorite dishes. I'm learning the guitar and love to sing.
