I am fully vaccinated for COVID-19 (Pfizer)

I am a student who loves art, public transportation, museums, and cities. Currently majoring in Public Affairs/History, and minoring in Russian. I love traveling and meeting new people all over the US and the world. I have a collection of transit passes from every city I have been to and like to keep expanding that. I love to ride all of the available public transportation in whatever city I am in. One time I did a solo trip to 13 cities in 10 countries and did not step foot in a single car.

My Spanish/Russian is not very good but I am working on improving it.

Unfortunately I cannot host people as I live in a small apartment with my grandmother, but I would if I could
I can however show you around Los Angeles, particularly showing off our beautiful metro system!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a college student and would like to meet friends from all over the world!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I sailed from Florida to Cuba

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach about Los Angeles, and dispel falsehoods about LA being a city filled with fake people and no culture. Los Angeles is a wonderful place with very nice and genuine people and great art, culture, and food. (also you don't need a car in LA, the metro is not the best but still good)

I love learning about cities and the similarities between different ones worldwide. I also love learning about history, art, and architecture.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a lot of knowledge about city planning and Public Transportation around the world
