Hello!!! My name is Araceli, but I don't mind nicknames ( Ara, Cel, or Celi ). I grew up in Southern California and from an early age had a strong desire to explore. When I was 19, I had the opportunity to study abroad in England which made me want to see the world even more. It's been a couple of years, but I'm excited to start traveling again and see where life takes me. I love any form of physical activity (hiking, surfing, running, dance) and am willing to try out almost anything. My second love is food. I'd like to learn how to cook better, but for now eating my way through the world sounds like a good idea. I've just been trying to go with the flow and see where life takes me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking to meet new people, try new food, and get immersed in different cultures!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: pretty much anything but alternative/indie rock, pop, folk, soul, and R&B are my go to's.

Movies: comedies, adventute, fantasy, action, psychological thriller

Books: TBH it's been a while since I've read, but it used to be my favorite thing in the world. Fantasy, sci-fi, and memiors are my favorites.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I quit my job so I can travel for two months ( it’s what I’m doing right now).

I'd love to learn how to cook different foods. I'll share my banana chocolate chip muffin recipe.
