I am an LA-native artist/gardener/cook/etc. working on a masters in nutrition at Cal State LA! I spend a lot of time outside, and a lot of time in the kitchen. I'm quite easy going, love to cook for people (especially when I'm being hosted ;) ), have a good sense of humor, enjoy adventuring, exploring new cities, mountains, rivers, and restaurants. I never travel without my sketchbook, and am happiest getting lost wandering.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Keep the community rolllin. Hostin and surfin. It's been many years since I've hosted or surfed, but in my early/mid 20s I utilized this site quite a bit! I have had nothing but wonderful experiences. I surfed through Europe and Australia and have had hosted in Los Angeles and a bit in NY.

Interests

Like I mentioned, I love being in the kitchen and cooking for people. I love to cook meat, but often prefer to eat vegetarian. I love to paint and draw portraits, take pictures and people watch. I'm a dancer at heart, a doodler, a free spirit, and an energy queen.
