Hello! I am a SF Bay Area native, being born and raised in the little town of Fremont, CA. A graduate from San Jose State University, I am looking to apply my skills and interest in media to make a positive impact in local communities.

Life-long learner, sometimes stubborn - I am always looking for something new to discover. The world is only so big, and there are about 7 billion human beings living on this beautiful planet. Let's make this world a better place by connecting with each other :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to connect with fellow human beings and learn of cultures and the world. I am passionate about hearing other people's stories!

Music, Movies, and Books

Films:
I like anything from the modern blockbuster, the indie teenage coming-of-age flick, to classics - slapstick, new wave, Japanese, Italian, art house - the list goes on! Let's talk about about movies!

Music:
I love listening to all kinds of music. Surprise me! I am on an endless journey to discover music and will never settle with what is currently playing. I am curious about underground music and international music.

Books:
While not the most diligent reader (I jump around a lot), I find peace in escaping in literature. I enjoy reading contemporary english literature but would love to hear about what you have read! I grew up on the likes of J.D Salinger, George Orwell, and Shel Silverstein. I am currently reading books by Roberto Bolaño and Kurt Vonnegut. I'd like to hear about what you like to read!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bought a one way ticket to Spain on a whim. With no knowledge of Spanish and only a change of clothes on my back, I left on what was supposed to be a 2 week trip and ended up falling in love with the people and places. The rest is history.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Brainless conversations, thoughtful insightful conversation, whatever you're in the mood for.

I am passionate about learning so if you are passionate about something, I am more than willing to learn. A dish you like to cook? Your language? The art of something?

Let's share experiences and company with each other. Isn't that what life is about?
