About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am 23, going on 24, and live in a nice 2 bedroom apartment in Redondo Beach, Ca. While not working,I enjoy running, cycling, golfing, reading, and, of course, drinking a frosty beer. I'm not a huge party animal, however, under the right circumstances I like to make a fool of myself. Meanwhile, I spend a fair amount of time researching graduate programs (business or education) in order to enter a field I'm truly passionate about.

PHILOSOPHY

I am extremely competitive and expect the most from myself. That said, I also enjoy my fair share of leisure time and I love to laugh and make people laugh. Life would be quite dull without laughter and curiosity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Come and ask!

Teach, Learn, Share

Los Angeles is a major U.S. city with practically everything a travellor might hope for. We have beaches, mountains, sky scrapers, celebrities, great weather all year, rich and poor folks alike, too many bars to count. One thing to watch out for is summer-time tourists at beaches and other attactions. The best time to enjoy Los Angeles, like many other cities around the world, is probably September/October/Early November. The weather is still nice, air is crisp, and it's not nearly as crazy around popular areas.
Things to expect: expensive drinks and congested highways. If you're ready for that you should be prepared to really enjoy what Los Angeles has to offer.
