I'm a recent college grad who enjoys to travel, explore, turn strangers into friends, and believe that there is no better time to explore the world than NOW. I earned a degree in Geosciences from UCLA in 2018 and am in the second year of my PhD program in Forestry at Michigan State. My goal is to set foot on all of the continents (still missing Antarctica, Africa, and South America). I'm easy going, spontaneous (so if I requested a stay last minute, I promise that it's not a red flag; I probably just decided to hop on a plane and go somewhere because the ticket was a steal!), compassionate, and environmentally conscious. Favorite quote, "Be yourself everyone else is already taken."
Interested in Environmentalism
Interested in Hiking
Fluent in English

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I take so much pleasure out of traveling and a huge part of it is because of the people I meet along the way. I also enjoy cooking very much and am always up for a cookoff.
Music, Movies, and Books
I enjoy the 90's and boy bands from the 90's (Talk to me about Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, Boyz II Men, and Westlife!)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Went skydiving for my 21st birthday Swam with the sharks in the open ocean
Teach, Learn, Share
I've recently traveled Southeast Asia, Western Europe, West Coast of Australia, and spent a couple of months in China and am happy to share some stories about my experience.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I am a decent conversationalist and can make good company :D.
My Interests
Traveling, reading fiction, watching sitcoms (my all-time-favorite is FRIENDS), skating, and meeting new people. I am also involved in a lot of environmental and conservation projects on campus as being sustainable means a lot to me.
