I am almost 33yrs old. Loves traveling and meeting new people. I was born around the world and grew up in the south mostly. I love dogs, smoking doesnt bother me but I rarely do it. I am super tidy and clean and out of the way. I am a HUGE COOK and loooove to host people in my home for up to two days Max! I live in the valley... so its out of the way usually for everyone but its a quiet area surrounded by churches. Free All Day Parking on my street. CLOSE to the FLYWAY Bus Pick Up if you need to go to LAX or Burbank Airport. Close to the 405.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing
I love traveling on a budget, its the ultimate best! Actually its not... but I enjoy meeting new people and getting advice from actual locals. I am not looking for you to show me around or bother you. Just needing a place to change, maybe shower, and sleep at night. And thats all I am looking for in a guest
Muzyka, filmy i książki
I enjoy all music... but Folk or Pop are my favorites... I love movies but there are too many to write. I enjoy the classics... Comedy but not stupid comedy. and dont get me started on Game of Thrones, Orange is the New Blk, or a bunch of other tv shows....

Drag me to Hell: Christine’s home, where she’s visited by the Lamia, is 1031 Everett Street, on tiny Everett Park, off Sunset Boulevard, southwest of Elysian Park. You might recognise the house from Training Day. After finally confronting the curse, Christine and Clay head off for a well-earned vacation.

You are over looking Melrose Blvd... lepainquotidien.us ( close to the Pacific Design Center ) * Hollywood & Highland Center is on Hollywood Boulevard, between Highland Avenue and Orange Drive. The street winds down and becomes three lanes. You will then see the Hollywood & Highland retail complex. The parking structure is on Highland Avenue next to the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel & Spa, north of Hollywood Blvd. Youll want to be in the right lane.

If you really take your time looking at this, it can take about 45minutes. After you are done with with this, I suggest walking around and looking at the stores etc, as places on Hollywood Blvd close around 8pm on Sundays. Also, I wouldnt want to be walking on Hollywood too late. I would say take off before 7:30pm. After you have looked around, there is an amazing place up the street, reasonably priced. And its a part of the famous Roosevelt Hotel. The place is called 25 Degrees. It is right in front/across the street from Madame Tussauds wax museum... a couple stores down from The Chinese Theater. 25 Degrees!: PHONE: 323.466.7000 RESERVATIONS: 800.950.7667 7000 HOLLYWOOD BLVD LOS ANGELES, CA 90028 HTTP://WWW.THOMPSONHOTELS.COM/MEDIA/114038/25DDINNER.PDF TS VERY OLD HOLLYWOOD FEEL..
