Hello & Welcome! My name is Cristina & I am a world-traveler, originally from Saint Petersburg, Russia (my mother is Russian, father is Cuban), though I have grown up predominantly in Canada and the United States.

Have been in LA about two years. Moved out originally to do UCLA's Screenwriting program.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My couch surfing experiences have been pretty great. I've had nothing but great experiences in Copenhagen, Denmark; San Jose, Costa Rica; Jaco, Costa Rica; Dublin, Ireland.

I've hosted a number of people in the NYC area from Netherlands, France, Latvia, and others.
