ABOUT ME
I live in San Francisco and dream about traveling more. I work at an educational non-profit that serves low-income middle school students.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love traveling and meeting new people and I really like getting off the beaten path any place I'm visiting. I also think that visiting place with a local is the best way to experience things as a traveler.
