I’m 19 and traveling New Zealand in a van currently. I deeply appreciate my hometown of sunny San Diego, but know the world has so much to teach me so I continue to travel as much as I can. I love meeting new people everywhere I go and seeing how deep of connections you can make so quickly with strangers. Every day I strive to just exist and find happiness in everything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking for a place I can park my van at. Maybe use bathroom and kitchen from time to time so I don’t have to poop on the lawn!

Music, Movies, and Books

I can talk about movies and music for hours. Best movie of all time: Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. Best song of all time: Dreams by Fleetwood Mac. Best book besides the Harry Potter series: The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho.

Teach, Learn, Share

The best moments in your life will be the ones that almost didn’t happen, with someone you never expected, and in some place you never knew existed.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Company, stories, hugs, food, any type of work you might need done...I’m open to ideas.
