ABOUT ME

Where to begin...first of all, I am a student trying to finish my last two years of college. Not long ago I dropped out of art school, because I wanted a well-rounded education. Now I am eagerly awaiting to finish my last remaining years of college. I want to pursue my education in Liberal Arts, especially Gender and Woman's studies. As of now, I just want to learn and travel.

Three things I can't live without is eating delicious food, sarcasm and watching good-bad movies. I am constantly thinking of food, and tasting food. I may be petite but I can eat all the time. I am so grateful and privilege to live in a city like Los Angeles. There are so many choices for food at pretty much any time of the day, like Mexican food at midnight, or Korean food 24 hours of the day.

I would love to meet new people and talk about their experience in traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

be happy

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently living at home with my family, so I can't really host anyone. However, I will more than happy to meet up for coffee, drink, lunch, dinner, brunch, dessert, hang-out, or anything else. I live in a town called South Pasadena, which is about 10 minutes away on the freeway from downtown LA, or 30 minutes tops via public transportation. There is a bunch of cute coffee shops and old houses in Pasadena. If you are a traveler coming to LA, I can probably show you around my favorite places in LA and Pasadena.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couch surfed when I went to Portland and had a blast.

Over this past winter I traveled to Spain and couchsurfed in Barcelona for two nights.
