Hello! My name is Joey, I graduated from UC Berkeley in California. I live in Oakland, California in a beautiful apartment next to a lake with 2 flat-mates. We have a very big couch that can sleep 2 people. Easy train ride from/to downtown San Francisco. May be able to host in exchange for a good meal and/or positive and truthful experience review :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love to travel because I believe doing so can teach you so much more than any classroom. experience is more rewarding.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

A few years ago I backpacked through Colombia, Equador, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay. I did my Master’s in Barcelona Spain. I once chased wild elephants away from farmer's crops on motorcycles with a group of villagers in the Himalayas. I tried to sneak onto a rescue boat to escape Morocco during a lockdown. I enjoy telling stories!
