My mother is from Peru and my father is from the United States - where I grew up. I loved growing up with two cultures! From that I have grown to a woman itching to see the world. Baby steps in Costa Rica in high school, a big leap to studying abroad in Italy in college, and now my husband and I have relocated to Vienna, Austria! I'm so excited to find more opportunities as life continues. I find that I relatively easily get along with a wide variety of people, and I am open to varying opinions. Still trying to push my boundaries, and one of my life goals is to become fluent in Spanish.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
