CURRENT MISSION

I plan on spending this year traveling to new places, meeting new people, and embracing each day as an adventure!

ABOUT ME

I am a proud native San Franciscan, and a university student in Santa Barbara, California, a beautiful college beach town! Although I love California, I truly enjoy traveling and exploring new cities and new cultures too, which is why I'm spending this year studying abroad in Lyon, France! I love my family, my friends, eating, drinking, music, dancing, and good conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

love & respect

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CouchSurfing is a wonderful medium through which I can meet locals when traveling to new places. Learning about a city from the people who live there is much more telling than simply seeing the sites.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I just started couchsurfing, and I have only had great experiences.
