Currently studying in California, waiting to head out on another adventure! I enjoy biking, hiking, swimming, and cats. I’m studying media studies in the realm of environmental education, and my next goal is to work on a production set.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that Couchsurfing is an excellent way to meet people from all over the world! I love to make connections and meet new friends both locally and abroad.

Music, Movies, and Books

Each day has a different song to match my mood- music is always on my mind and in my ears. I love classic rock artists (Hendrix, The Doors, The Beatles, Grateful Dead, Wolfmother, Jethro Tull, Muse, Red Hot Chili Peppers), alternative rock (Gorillaz, Radiohead, Of Montreal, Queens of the Stone Age), indie (Iron and Wine, James Blake, Dispatch, Josh Garrels), to funk (Jamiroquai), gypsy jazz (John Jorgenson), reggae (Sublime, 10 Ft. Ganja Plant), hip-hop (Jurassic 5, Gift of Gab, The Roots, Tribe Called Quest), and so much more from jazz to chill-step to classical piano!

Current favorite book - The City of Thieves by David Benioff

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spelunking in Belize was the most thrilling experience of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to work a camera! I work as a freelance portrait photographer/documentary filmmaker, with most of my love going toward Photoshop.

I want to learn about new cultures and people from massive cities and hidden places.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a positive attitude and an optimistic view on life :) I am also willing to help out in any way I can.
