ABOUT ME
I live in California and go to school in San Diego, but at the moment, I am studying abroad in Florence, Italy and soaking up Italy as well as other parts of Europe. This semester has been the most amazing, by far the best, time of my life. I love Europe and do not wanna leave!!
====
so that was i wrote 3 years ago as a young ambitious study abroad student. i didn't think i would be able to go back to europe so soon but im going back!!! and i'm so so so excited! decided to pick up couchsurf again because it really help me soak in all the culture, hanging out and talking to natives who know their cities so well and actually desire to share it with me.
I'm really easy going, down to try new things, but mostly food hehe
i may joke around and pick on you just to build rapport. but that means, all the picking on is all out of love. i wouldn't do that if i really didn't like you.
I also love hearing where people come from- their stories. Seeing how different every culture never seems to stop being so amazing, some countries have literally been culture shock to its max but nonetheless, i love seeing, experiencing, tasting and learning about other cultures. i especially enjoy getting to know a local, who breaks stereotype of that country/people.
I also really like people watching. One of my favorite things to do was just siting at the Arno in Firenze, people watching and eating my gelato.
PHILOSOPHY
everything happens for a reason-
you meet certain people for a reason
everyone has a story
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I started couchsurfing in Europe when I came to Italy to study abroad for a semester and I've met so many great people! They've all been so nice and open with me, sharing many interesting talks. I know the experience in Europe wouldnt have been the same without CSurfers
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
couchsurfing is really interesting. It's pretty crazy that people trust strangers like this hah
but thank God for these kind souls who make these trips possible for lost tourists who are looking to travel and experience to its full potential.
