*LOOKING FORWARD TO CLARKSVILLE AND NEW ORLEANS LATE MAY/EARLY JUNE!! Specifically looking to go to explore the cities and “old times.” I’m very interested in 1920’s-1950’s history as well as dancing! I would love to stay with someone that can show me the local swing / Lindy hop scene as that is one of my greatest passions!
I live in between Los Angeles and San Diego and would love to return the favor when you are in my area!

I don’t have many references cause I have always been in college and working full time, but this summer I’m really hoping to explore eastern United States!

Anyways, I’m 23 and I’m pretty extroverted but I may be shy when you FIRST meet me! I become extroverted once I get to know you lol. I really enjoy the company of people, especially new faces :) I’m a science major who is actively pursuing a degree in health care. If anyone would like to let me shadow them at a hospital that would definitely be a plus! Love traveling to places that are rich in the arts and history. I’m interested in people’s stories and hearing more about their purpose. I love to learn what drives a person and motivates them to do the work they do in their every day life. What makes them tick. What drives them & motivates them and makes them feel inspired.

I’m probably one of those people that are never going to marry and just travel the world until I’m 70 cause of how much I love learning about new people and places 💕

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One?! Yeah right.

Travel across the country from coast to coast on a train, EDC 2010 (back when it was mostly house music and some trance), Coachella 2013, lots of hitchhiking with friends. Changed drivers in the middle of a free way. Shaved my head to donate my hair (twice).

Edit: OUTSIDELANDS 2018!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some stuff about science or Colombian culture. I’d like to learn more about different cultures even within a state or country. I want to know the ins and outs as if I have lived there. I can teach you a lot about caring for a person as I am actively pursuing a degree in healthcare. If you are curious what field, message me and maybe I’ll tell you! I can tell you good stories of perserverence and hopefully leave our trip with a feeling of being able to conquer the world and hopefully a little bit more healed. I’m kind of on a mission to help people through their harder times

I would love to learn how to Lindy hop better! Actually, I think I’m an okay swing dancer.. but definitely need to improve my shag (not THAT kind of shag—but the dancing kind!) and balboa! I love dancing to hop hop as well :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will respect your privacy, place, and space. I am pretty independent but I thrive off good stories, good advice, and exchanges of ideas.

I am tidy and considerate.

Lots of life experience despite a young 23 years of age.

A good therapy session (lol).
Good ears to vent to.

And a good laugh!
