Capricorn. Free spirit. Vagabond who doesn't wanna settle down but is stuck in college. But actually loving it. I wanna study gender studies or anthropology and possibly a little Econ. I took a year off to travel the world and learn about its amazing and diverse people and cultures. I've spent most of my time in Asia, Africa and Europe and I'm addicted to adventure. India is my favorite place EVER and I will talk about it for days if you don't stop me. Because I am in college, I can only host during holidays and summer, but am more than happy to meet up and show you the Bay Area or LA. Xx - Jess

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I believe in one happy, interconnected peaceful and loving global community! In the words of Baha'i A Ullah - "The world is but one country and mandkind its citizens"

Teach, Learn, Share

Yes, I like to teach learn and share... What does this category even mean??

What I Can Share with Hosts

From a lot of travel experience, I've learned to be very hospitable! I have a nice house with a spare bedroom and a wonderful mom who can cook as dinner... Don't worry she's a chill mom. I am the biggest fan of the Bay Area and can offer you a wonderful tour of my town and its surrounding areas, including but not limited to SF city centre, SF scenic viewpoints, south of SF and Silicon Valley, Half moon bay, skyline, Santa Cruz, Carmel/Pebble Beach and Big Sur, which is probably my second favorite place in the world :)
