My name is Rachel and I am currently living in ocean beach, San Diego. I am 24 and mostly you'll find me doing handstands and puzzles.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurf because the best way to get to know a new location is from talking to locals. Also, traveling is not just about seeing the sights. Traveling is about making memories, sharing stories, hearing stories, finding new friends, and learning every chance you get.

Interests

I love music, art, and dancing. I play a few instruments and if you hand me a guitar after a few beers, I'll certainly entertain you. I also love anything outdoors like hiking, surfing, etc. I love to read and I will probably leave you with a book or at least five titles you need to read. I drink copious amounts of red wine and I can be obnoxiously optimistic.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a huge fan of Fleetwood Mac, Ben Harper, and Trevor Hall. But I also love Frank Sinatra, J Cole, and reggaeton music. I enjoy a wide variety. I don't watch much TV/movies but, as I've said, I love ANY BOOK!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Slept under the stars in the Sahara Desert

Teach, Learn, Share

I stand on my head pretty frequently so maybe we could do that together? I'll share tons of laughs with you, I promise that. And I'm a morning person, so I'll make breakfast if you trust me with your stove.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am so easy to talk to and I am very enthusiastic about life. I'm probably the most optimistic person you'll ever meet and I love to spread that joy. I can offer you good conversation and plenty of laughs along the way.
