Hello! I'm Shelby. I'm a 24, a UCLA grad, currently living in Southern California. I was born in Florida and grew up in the mountains of Northwestern Montana!
I definitely value experiences over material goods and have a huge passion for cross-cultural understanding. I've done my fair share of traveling but am very aware that the more I travel/learn, the more I realize I don't know.
Honesty is one of my most important qualities in my own life, and especially with relationships and new friends.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Hoping to meet people with similar passions to share new experiences with!
Right now I'm looking for housing for the Sundance Film Festival (and someone willing to take in a poor recent college graduate trying to get ahead in the film game).

TEACH
If you wanna let me geek out about international cinema.. we can talk about how film plays such an important role for identity, cultural learning/understanding, and therefore acceptance of people who are different from ourselves.

LEARN
Anything about your life / experiences

SHARE
Tickets to my films that are screening at Sundance! Also I'm a pretty mediocre chef but would love to cook your favorite dinner and bake your favorite dessert
