Hey there! I'm Mariana. You'll likely find me indulging in a good ol' cup of fair-trade coffee, wandering through these northern Minnesotan woods, or getting absorbed in live music. Maybe all three at once.
I currently work with University students to help them organize around environmental and social justice issues.
I'm pretty chill, soft spoken, and easy going. I enjoy hosting all types of surfers, whether you are looking for just a place to stay or want to hang out. As a surfer, I'm pretty low-maintenance and able to be independent, though it is always great to spend time with my hosts if they are able.
