I'm 21 years old and am studying abroad for a semester in Brighton, England. Originally from Orange County, CA but go to Chico State. After I'm done with my studies here in Brighton, I'm going backpacking around Europe for a month with my two best friends. I am studying sports science, really interested in an active lifestyle. I'm pretty easy going. I love the beach! Huge San Diego Chargers fan. Always down for a drink, but don't smoke. Do really well in school, and am in the process of applying to graduate schools in the States for a masters in occupational therapy. Involved in a sorority as well. Just another 21 year old girl wanting to see the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My friend recommended it to me as a cheap way to get around Europe. I also want to meet locals that would be able to show us around and/or tell us the best places to go. It's always fun to meet locals and learn new cultures.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite music would be country music, but I also like the "hip" new music that plays on the radio.

My favorite movies are Miracle and The Blind Side, but I also love funny movies like 21/22 Jump Street, Anchorman, Horrible Bosses.

Big fan of the Hunger Games, and books written by Jodi Piccoult.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Honestly, studying abroad is probably the best thing I've ever done in my life. I am IN LOVE with it. I am in love with trying new things, seeing new cultures, experiencing fun things, always craving a change.

Favorite moments would be wakeboarding on the Colorado River, glassy water, during sunset.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always interested in learning more about different cultures and history.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Really easy going, not expecting too much. Not picky, except when it comes to foods. Someone fun to hang out with and hopefully teach them a few things about Americans. Really clean and respectful.
