CURRENT MISSION Enjoy life ABOUT ME I WOULD LOVE TO HOST PEOPLE WITH PREFERABLY HOSTING REFERENCES SO I CAN GIVE BACK TO THE DESERVING PEOPLE THAT ARE ACTIVE IN THE CS COMMUNITY AND NOT ONLY SIGNED UP FOR A FREE HOTEL.... It is OK if you only found out about CS before traveling, but my advice to you is to make at least the effort to go to CS meet-ups before or during your trip to get some personal references and get to know the CS community. If I decline your Couch Request it is probably because you don't have any hosting references, or simply because I am already having a guest. We get so many requests in the LA area, and sorry, but often I don't have the time to add a message when declining. About Me: I have German and Pakistani origins growing up in Germany and living now in the US. I am a teacher and love my job not only because it is rewarding, but also because it gives me 3 month out of the year free to travel :-) I like to travel to places I have not been yet, connect with locals and discover their secret spots and food. In my free time I like to socialize and have good food. I try to keep myself active with yoga, hikes, and dancing. I am very good in keeping myself busy I actually never get bored there are so many things that I like to do and have not tried yet. PHILOSOPHY Treat others the way you want to be treated, with respect, kindness, and positive vibes and have the courage to standup for others that are being treated unfairly. Judge a person by their character and merrit and not by their race, gender, sexual preference, religion, social status, education and other irrelevant things. I support diversity and at the same time uniqueness of each individual. I prefer to be around genuine people rather than superficial. And last but not least face life with lots of humor.

I'm 35 full time Jiu Jitsu instructor, grew up in Brazil but live in Los Angeles for over 20 years now. My school is called Caique Jiu Jitsu and it's about 5 minutes walk from my house, if you want to take a class I'd love to have you. I love to travel to try new food, meet people and experience different cultures. At home I enjoy cooking all sorts of foods. I also go to the beach often when the weather is nice. I'm generally very active but also love to have a very quiet time and enjoy sunsets or great dinner.

I'm born and raised in Los Angeles. I enjoy exploring as much as I do working. I'm a pretty chill dude in my late 20s who loves meeting people from different backgrounds - whether from another state or another country. Most of my traveling is done in the US and Latin America.

I am a Ukrainian woman who resides in the USA., Seal Beach , California. I am 60 years old I would love to explore new places in the USA and outside of the country. I am not fully retired yet but I have lots of time on hands to travel I am also curious about meeting new people, making friends, and learning new languages.

CURRENT MISSION To expand my understanding of the world by sharing my home with people from all cultures and worldviews. ABOUT ME Hello fellow Couchsurfers! I am just starting to become active in the community again. Since the last time I was active here, I have had quite a few life changes, and haven't had a chance to come back online to host. I am starting to do that again now. I love to travel when I can but time is scarce between work, parenting, and a million other hobbies so I love to host travelers from around the world. I am an aerospace engineer and a dad and love both of those things that take up most of my awake time. I love meeting new people and sharing life experiences and hope to expose my toddler to a diversity of experiences and thoughts.

Haiii my names Corina! I love traveling and meeting new people. Super calm and down to earth. I love going to the beach, nature, visiting various cafés, art museums, lounges, I LOVE live music and dancing!! Looking forward to making many friends 💗💗😊

I love traveling and exploring many beautiful places around the world. I like nature and outdoors and spending time by the beach as well as exploring different cultures and different countries!!

CURRENT MISSION- Enjoying life, one day at a time. Life's possibilities are endless, each day is your 2nd chance to chase your dream! Believe you can and you are already half way there. Destination Past :: Hawaii Island Touring Destination Next :: California Coast Exploring Hello and welcome to my Couchsurfing page. I hope I can create an inspiring Couch Surfing experience for you. If you are visiting the southwest :: CA, AZ, NV, UT Please don't hesitate to send a message with any questions. I am pleased by the many local National Parks in this region and I am more than happy to share my knowledge on fun hikes, yummy eats, local attractions and more! Especially complimentary camping locations. I enjoy local stories while learning about different cultures and worldwide history. Especially when it involves food, culinary arts and outdoor adventures. I'd like to give back in many ways, one is to support and donate to one of our amazing National Parks organizations across the USA I do my best to reduce any carbon footprint possible from an efficient eco friendly approach. I prefer not to use the dishwasher as I really enjoy hand washing dishes to save on resources- water and electricity. Next time you're out for an errand that requires you to wait in line (Grocery store, bank, postal office, etc...) If you're not in a rush, take a moment to look behind you- sometimes you may see an elderly individual, a parent with a baby, someone on crutches, a person (that is in a hurry) - it would not hurt to offer them a queue advancement by swapping spots. PHILOSOPHY Help those in need by sharing and learning something new everyday. Go ahead and take a step out of your comfort zone. At some point in time do what you want, not what you need. Wherever you are and whatever you do, leave the place cleaner than you found it
