Hello fellow couchsurfers! My name is Maria and I am 21 years old. I am currently a student at UCLA, so I reside in Westwood, Los Angeles, CA. I am an open-minded individual that is excited to explore this amazing world of ours! I always look forward to meet new people, learn new things, and explore new places! Pretty spontaneous and always seeking a good thrill! :D

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I'm on CS because I absolutely love its mission and values (: The paying it forward aspect of it is awesome! I will be in a Europe trip this summer and as you may guess, I am in a very tight budget. However, other than my budget, I doubt that I will learn at a hostel or hotel what I will learn from a fellow local. I hope that from this experience I am able to give & take and have an awesome first of (hopefully) many backpacking experiences :D
