Hello! My name is Nadia, I am 25 years old. I usually live in Santa Barbara, California but I just quit my job and I'm on a big road trip around the Pacific North West for the rest of the summer!

I love to read, do pottery, write, go to the beach, swim in every body of water I come across, cook vegan food, go hiking, camping, see live music, do yoga, and have long conversations with friends - old and new!

I am not much of a partier or much of a drinker. I prefer a big day out in nature and an early night rather than a night out.

I speak English and Spanish, always down to practice Spanish!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The reason I am traveling is to meet people. I love getting a sense of how people live, learning about the culture, and hearing local suggestions of places to go and things to do. I also am unemployed and am trying to save as much money as possible!
