Woah times have changed, Iām going to update my old profile later š I guess the me now will remain a mystery I am a 21 year old sociology student from California. I want to impact the world positively by becoming an entrepreneur then politician. I value courage, purity, spirit, emotional strength, wisdom, and honesty. I am interested in everything and want to be good at everything, but am learning how to limit myself... I enjoy sparring, any sport, camping, adventures, playing(!), jamming, having deep conversations, and making art. I like challenges, playful competition, learning and try new things! Although sometimes I feel anxious, I think whatever makes me uncomfortable is good and will help me grow/become a more capable person! I value people that are open, accepting, and not afraid to be themselves. Also, I love meeting people who have unique, nuanced, and original worldviews!

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Because I'm on exchange in Italy for one year and hope to travel a lot!! I also want to meet cool and interesting people, and make friends from different cultures, places, and points of view. I think traveling while couchsurfing will improve the quality of my experiences in each place, enabling me to encounter unique points of views and expand my own. Also, I don't want to just go somewhere, experience it as a tourist and only know it surface level! Staying with locals will make me feel more integrated, having a stronger connection to wherever I stay; that way, in my mind, the world will be full of places that I truly love and want to return to :)
