My name is Kiersten Krog and I just graduated from Chapman University in Southern California. I plan on going to graduate school and getting my masters in teaching and becoming a primary school teacher. I love interacting with children and staying active. I love hard work that makes me feel fulfilled at the end of the day. I love to exercise and get my hands dirty. Traveling is a passion of mine and I can't wait to travel Europe. My favorite places I've traveled are Denmark and Tanzania. I love listening to alternative rock music and going to music festivals. My boyfriend Brendan is an artist and designer who also loves to travel. He just graduated from the University of Southern California and is entering the furniture design industry. He lived in England for three years and can't wait to see more of Europe! We're both very relaxed people who love to get to know our hosts and see as much of the city as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people! It's important to me to get to know those around me and meet people from different cultures. I think it's great to meet someone and form a bond with them that can last a lifetime. I would also love the chance to meet someone, form a friendship, and then have them come visit me in Los Angeles! My door is always open!
