About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to meet new and awesome people

ABOUT ME

Been couchsurfing since 2009.

Graduated from UC Santa Cruz studying engineering.
After Santa Cruz, I moved to Washington DC/ Maryland Area. I traveled fto Singapore and a few small islands in Indo (gilis!).

Moved from DC to Dunedin, New Zealand for research (south Island!). Traveled there alot, a beautiful country!

Lived in New York for the past few years, and just moved back to Los Angeles for graduate school (UCLA!)

When I am not in the lab working, I like to spend my time outdoors, climbing, or listening to/making music. I also love hanging out with my friends, and going to shows and festivals. I love going to the beach, to surf, swimming and skimboarding and camping. You might see me around town riding my longboard.

PHILOSOPHY

good times and high fives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to meet other couch surfers. Im down to just meet up and show people a good time, or host when I am able to. My friends and I are very open-minded and accepting people and we love meeting new folks and showing them how we have a good time!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I learned about this website from some surfers I met at burning man, and they seemed like they had excellent experiences!

I have had a few surfers and met/communicated with more surfers and every I have met is super awesome. I hope to surf someone's couch on my next travels as well as be able to meet up with and possibly host some surfers here in DC.
