Lifelong Bay Area resident. Graduated from UC San Diego in 2012, riding the tumultuous waves of adulthood ever since. Just looking for the next ride!

I'm new to this. Grew up in a household where we didn't wear shoes indoors. Like to keep the house clean. Respectful of other's privacy. That said, have lived in some shabby places and definitely no snob as far as people or cleanliness.

I love a good chat now and again but pretty low-key. I'll be out of the house most of the time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Moved to San Francisco from San Diego; had ideal living situation in the Mission thanks to friends and family... Long story short, house burnt down. Quit tech job upon realizing I absolutely hate working in an office. Now just looking to enjoy life yet again, be near the ocean and work in some capacity as a writer or cinematographer... (Long shot, I know.)
· Miss the good ol' college days in San Diego. Looking to step out of the comfort zone. Hopefully find a cozy little pad in beautiful Los Angeles.

TLDR; relocating from SF. Looking for shelter while finding new place. 2-3 days max (4-5 if you are flexible). Steady income -- loitering will be a non-issue.
