Hi! My name is Donja and I am 23 years old! I am currently an au pair in Los Angeles and will be leaving my host family for whom I have worked for the past year. Before I lived here, I was an au pair in Philadelphia. I immensely enjoyed it! I will return home to Holland at the end of August and will be traveling before this. I can not get enough of the USA and am bummed to go home but also can not wait to see my family again!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking for a place to stay from July 30 until Aug 7. As an au pair I have a limited budget which is why I wanted to try out couch surfing. In the meantime I hope to meet interesting people and maybe make some friends and learn something new through the people I'm staying with!
