About Me

CURRENT MISSION

share my awesome City and enjoy a local perspective when I travel

ABOUT ME

I'm an independent, energetic girl who loves spending time with friends. I fill my free time with cycling, running, yoga, cooking scrumptious dinners, exploring cities, and sleeping a lot. I also enjoy back-packing, traveling, climbing, and trying new things. You'll often find me strolling through the farmer's market, devouring a new book, or blazing by on a trail. In a nod to my acquaintance who invented the concept, I identify as a quirkyalone. I'm a berkeley girl, but am an urbanist and enjoy exploring great cities when I'm not hanging out in my streetcar suburb.

PHILOSOPHY

We must be the change we wish to see in the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host friends and friends of friends at my place in Berkeley often. I'm looking forward to helping out folks on CS whenever possible! I've been getting a large volume of requests recently, so please be aware that due to my schedule and my roommate's preferences I cannot accommodate them all.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed in Paris, Barcelona, northern California, and had a blast! I've hosted about a dozen folks in Berkeley, California.
