About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Read abundantly, Travel joyfully

ABOUT ME

I'm a 21 year old Washington state native who relocated to San Diego, California for school. I worked as a financial analyst at Amazon in Seattle. In the spring, my boyfriend, Matt, and I travelled throughout Europe from the end of March until mid-May! Matt is also a UCSD graduate who works in the tech industry. We had some great Couchsurfing experiences while in Europe! We can't wait to explore more of the world and hopefully meet with some very interesting people while there!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We had two CouchSurfing experiences in Europe - and both were great! We have enjoyed having long conversations with our hosts about the differences between our cultures and many other things.

We have not hosted yet, but would like to in the future!
