Hello! My name is Diane, I just moved to Paris in July from Berkeley California. I was born in the Philippines and moved to the US when I was 19. I love to travel to new places and meet people of different cultures! I love the 'aha' moment I get when I find my way after being lost.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I met some really cool people in Kauai, Hawaii and their group formed through couchsurfing. I'd like to meet new friends and travel with like-minded people!
