I LOVE to travel!!! It's food for my soul. I work to travel and exercise to eat whatever I want! I have the best job in the world where I work as an elementary school teacher where I'm greeted with smiling kids every morning. I can't deny the wonderful vacation time that comes with it! Seeing the world, experiencing new cultures, and meeting new people is the best education ever. We need to get out of our bubble. I'm the daughter of two people who came to the United States as foreign exchange students many years ago got married and had me. I was born and raised in Los Angeles. My mother is Chinese Indonesian and my father is Indian. Thanksgiving at my house is hilarious and it looks like the United Nations. You're invited if you'd like to join. My door is always open!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and making new friends. I come from an international family and love learning about different cultures and customs. I'm just such a social butterfly, I love hearing people's stories. We all have one. Where are you from? How did you get to this point in your life? Where are you going? I'm fascinated by it all!

Interests

I love to hike, being outdoors and in nature. I love reading and learning and of course I love to travel. I will eat beans and rice just to fund all my travels. I really enjoy having friends over and cooking for them,I'm just not the best cook :(, having wine, playing board games, and having great conversation. Doesn't that sound like such a fun night!
