Hi! My name is Suzanne. I'm a small town girl who grew up in the rolling hills of the California countryside (despite what you may think, CA is much more than just LA and San Fran). I love everything nature, photography, writing, music, philosophy, and just generally artistic and wondrous. I went to school in LA for four years and met so many people. I also studied abroad in Ireland which I absolutely loved!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling, but on an intimate scale. People are what make experiences joyous and beautiful, and I crave that in my life. It makes an experience so much more meaningful to meet someone and see life through their eyes.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Jaymes Young, Sigur Ros, Eivor, Wardruna, Chequerboard, Seas of Years, Olafur Arnalds, North Country Gentlemen, XYLO, Anilah, Ah Nee Mah and many more! If you get me talking about music expect to be there for a few hours!

Films: Anything directed by Ingmar Bergman or Andrei Tarkovsky! I'm obsessed with their work!
