About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To Visit as many places as possible and learn as much as I can about all cultures

ABOUT ME

I am a 23 year old girl from San Diego, Ca. I love having fun and meeting new people from all over the world. I love housing new friends and have yet to stay with anyone but hoping to change that soon. I am in college but can't seem to finish because I keep getting side tracked with traveling. I have my bar tending license and would love to make you a nice drink to warm up with.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep an open mind, don't judge people, have fun, try everything once, love life and live it like you may die tomorrow, because believe me you never know whats around the corner.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love having people stay with me in San Diego and showing them a fun time in true California fashion....

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My friend Andrew (Vicarious Voyager-CS name) introduced me to couch surfing in 2005.... he housed several people though CS but could not keep them at his house long enough and asked me if I would let some of his friends stay at my house for a couple days.......

from then on I was hooked on couch surfing. Everyone I meet is so unique and interesting, and share that special spice of life that it takes to be a couch surfer.....to be able to stay with complete strangers, trust them, and peek into their lives.

I have housed several people from couch surfing, including people from Spain and Sweden. I have yet to stay with anyone but am looking to change that soon. Please look at my other account Krystin/Nikki :)
