I'm just a girl who loves art, food, music and travelling!

I've lived in China for about 3 years, Japan for 3 months, and now Saipan for almost 3 years. I'm hoping to see as much of Asia as possible, then eventually I'll work my way through other continents.

My English is native, my Spanish is rusty and I speak as much Mandarin as a 3 year old.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I know a couple people who do it and love it, so I figure I'd give it a try. It's affordable, and sounds fun so count me in!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visited one of the original, untouched parts of the Great Wall of China in the middle of no where, camped in the desert, and rode camels through apricot orchards (same trip). Of course, the laptop I had at the time crashed so I lost all my pictures! I cried.

Another amazing experience I have had was making pottery in Viet Nam on a farm with just our hands, feet and clay.

Sorry! I just can't pick one... here's one more--Parasailing near Managaha Island in the Pacific with friends.
