I'm a 20 year old exchange student from San Diego, CA studying at University of Central Lancashire in Preston, England. I'm in school to become an elementary or middle school teacher, with a focus on arts and technology as well as film. During the summers I am a camp counselor for Girl Scouts and I go by Sunshine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am trying to travel as much as possible while I'm this close to the EU! And I'd rather stay with people and families than an expensive hotel.

Interests

I love to travel and meet new people and try new foods. I love to cook, I'm not great but trying new recipes to share with my family is one of my many joys in life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'll listen to any music pretty much. I am absolutely obsessed with film and I could not pick a favorite, but I recently saw The Revenant and it was spectacular.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've met a lot of celebrities! I live a short drive away from Hollywood and go there often to see show tapings and all the amusement parks.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I make a delicious chicken parmesan, can help you with your English if you aren't fluent, I am conversational in German as well and am starting to learn American Sign Language. I know a little bit about a lot of subjects.
