I grew up in Southern California and have spent time working in New Jersey in the summer time. I am just now beginning my travels after 4 years working and going to school in the Bay Area (Northern California). I am very passionate about growing food and sharing meals with others. And most of all I love getting outside whenever I can!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing after many recommendations to join from my roommate and aunt-- I hear great things about it! It seems to me that community is the most important thing that there is in life... so why would I not travel in a way that makes it possible to not just get to know the place I am in , but get to know the people and learn from each other along the way.
