By day I am a para-educator in Special Education for San Diego Unified School District, San Diego California USA. By night I am an aspiring author embarking on a trip to London to research my 3rd novel which will be set there. My first 2 novels are available on Amazon. Here is the link if you want to check them out:

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Truthfully, this is my plan B. I had made arrangements to stay with a friend in London for the 3 weeks that I will be there. After repeated attempts to reach him this month in order to confirm--and failing to connect with him--I have decided to devise an alternate plan, should I need one. UPDATE: I depart in two days and was just notified by a friend of my friend that he is in the hospital and will not be able to host.

In '10 I stayed in Greece for 5 weeks and found my hosts through couch surfing. It was one of the best experiences of my life.

Movies, theater, coffee, craft beer. I am a complete Star Wars nerd. I love exploring unknown areas and cities. To me, unless I am off on a solo adventure, it's more about who I am with than what we are doing.
