About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To finish school!

ABOUT ME

I am a student, so I do study quite a bit. But when I'm not studying I love to be outside-- camping, hiking, or skiing. Traveling is great, and I want to go everywhere before I have to begin a career.

PHILOSOPHY

Be respectful! I don't like leaving things a mess or ruining other peoples' day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I get back home to Berkeley, my couch is open! I also would love to show people around the bay area and explain to them why California is an amazing state :) If anyone is also planning to go skiing, I'll also offer them a ride into Tahoe for the weekend.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had my first couchsurfing experience in Barcelona-- GREAT! My host gave me advice on where to go/what to see, and was always easy to find when I wanted to get back into the apartment to go to sleep. We went out to dinner and I even met her friends, who are super cool. I'm glad that she was there to help me enjoy Barcelona even more!
