Hi couch surfers ! I'm a San-Francisco-based local in the Bay Area. Always the ever-so-curious cat, I love to travel, build wonderful connections, trek across beautifully hidden gems, and meet lovely people with a passion for adventure and opening their minds to what the world has to offer.

After having studied abroad for year in France and country-hopping across Europe, I have found that my thirst for adventures and exploring our earth's surroundings using a bit of patience and a open mind with compassion is worth more than checking off conventional things to do on a tourist's to-do list. Also, immersing myself into French culture and understanding different cultural identities through personal interactions with locals from any host country have further fueled my passion for learning languages and learning how to communicate meaningfully with others beyond just informal greetings alone. I hope to be able to share these experiences with you during the couch surfing adventures!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I would like to make newfound friends and meet cool locals along my travels and hopefully, in exchange for intriguing conversation, I'd be more than grateful to be able to have a host let me stay at their place in their beautiful home country.

According to friends and hosts who I've stayed with before, you don't need to worry about me because I value respect, cleanliness, and the need for personal space when it comes to being a guest in a host's humble abode ! ^-^

I love research and studying social movements, yoga, horror movies, trying different cuisines, hiking beyond the sky, and anything related to politics and international affairs.
