Hello all! My name is Shannon and I hail from cloudy San Francisco, CA.
My passions include local and international politics, social justice, the arts and its many forms, FOOD, dogs, and yoga.

When I am not focused on school, my time is spent eating food, practicing yoga, unwinding with the guitar, taking strolls in the city or in the wilderness all in which I either do with a friend or with moi!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting people is the best part of travel!

Creating relationships and taking advice from locals is both handy and more fulfilling than staying at a hotel (though I fancy myself a nice hotel!)

Through Couchsurfing I hope I can find a community:)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music- depends on the day

Books- Right now I'm reading Cooked by Michael Pollan. One of my favorite's is The Samurai's Garden by Gail Tsukiyama

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I've done is watch the sunset on Ocean Beach in San Francisco, CA

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach-
How to play guitar or piano!
My methods of painting and drawing.
Filipino food!

Learn- I'm hoping to learn whatever language you speak! I can only fluently speak English and can manage speaking tagalog so I hope to learn others. I'd like to one day be fluent in French and Spanish.

Share- see below!

What I Can Share with Hosts
