About Me

Hello!! Hm what can I say about myself... I am a native Californian. I've lived in San Francisco all my life. This is probably why I have such a passion for travel! Not only is SF an international city, it's so tiny so I need to break free once in a while! I love the process of learning and finding out about people and places firsthand. I am a very curious person so I have a wide range of hobbies and interests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just graduated college after many years. Traveling is one of my passions, and this will be the first time that I get to do that unhindered. The world is my oyster! One of the goals I set for myself after college is to do some solo traveling and meet people along the way that I can connect with. I am a bit shy and it's difficult for me to start up conversations with people, so Couchsurfing seemed like a great and easy starting point. I love the community atmosphere and how open people are, and I think it would be great to be a part of something like that.

Interests

I like being active. When I explore new cities and towns I like to walk around and get lost. It helps me to get to know the area better and discover things I would never have seen if I had a specific destination.

I enjoy hiking and scenic views. I take photographs but I don't claim to be any type of photographer.

FOOD! I love to eat...and drink!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am open to all types of music, especially when it's live. I can vibe to anything. I like jazz, hip hop, r&b, and most importantly music I can sing to!

I've been told I have horrible taste in movies, but I think I just appreciate the stories. I'm a Disney girl, but more like Peter Pan Disney. Some of my favorite TV shows are The Wire, True Detective, Adventure Time, and Bob's Burgers, just to give you a taste.

The Alchemist - Paolo Coehlo is my favorite book of all time. Also the Neverending Story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Studied abroad in Florence

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to cook, so I will offer my cooking services if you host me! I cook all sorts of things. I'm personally not vegan or vegetarian, but many of my friends are, so if you have dietary restrictions I have great recipes!
