ABOUT ME

I recently graduated from UC Riverside with a degree in language where I studied French, Japanese, and Russian. I am currently working as an English language assistant in the city of Pau, France.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything happens for a reason. Don't limit yourself. Grow a pair.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to meet more CS members.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I was studying abroad in Bordeaux, I met an au pair from CA through CS and we became good friends. Near the end of my stay I also hosted a surfer from the UK; it was a really enjoyable experience.
