Hey there! I'm Shayla, an English Education student at Michigan State University. I'm originally from Puerto Rico, and moved to North Carolina when I was 12, then I moved again to Michigan, so I've been around. I live with my boyfriend, my best friend, and her boyfriend and my fat cat Rigby. We are pretty diverse people, but love nerdy things, board/video games and rock'n'roll. In fact, two household members are in a band! We love all people from all walks of life and hope you do too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I traveled a lot as a teen and saw how welcoming strangers were in different parts of the world. I want to try to pay-it-forward as well.
