Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To experience the most that life has to offer with a positive attitude and outlook.
ABOUT ME
I'm 23, have lived and worked in Brussels, Prague, and currently live in LA. Love to meet new people, try new things, and eat new foods! I work hard and like to have fun on weekends, exploring the crazy urban sprawl that is LA, and traveling around southern California with friends.
PHILOSOPHY
I think some of the most important qualities a person can have are kindness, open-mindedness, curiosity, and ambition.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've been hosted and accompanied by lots of couchsurfers while I was in Europe, now I'm trying to open up my own home when I can!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Before I joined, I stayed with a CS host in Dublin, who I met through a friend of mine. Had a great time, saw much of the local hangouts, and made some fantastic new friends. Since then, I've couchsurfed and co-traveled over and over. Every experience has been great.
