CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to eventually visit every country in the world:-)

ABOUT ME

I receive allot of requests daily, mainly because my apartment is very well located in Manhattan. and I try to get back to everyone
Keep in mind in making your request that Couch Surfing is not a free hostel/hotel but an opportunity to make friends and meet interesting people from all over the world. I ask that you stay 2 nights at the minimum, and 4 nights maximum, but it can be more if we really get along.

I prefer hosting couples

PHILOSOPHY

"Don't ask what a person has done. Ask where a person has been"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've done a CS house swap NYC for Montevideo, Uruguay and it was a great experience. And I hosted several times. Hope to do some more hosting when I'm in NYC. but I do travel allot - 42 countries so far. My goal is to eventually travel to all 200 + countries in the world, at least the one's that are not in war zones.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As far as being a CS guest I haven't done that yet. Usually when I travel I stay at hostels, as it's the best way to meet fellow travelers. Perhaps in the future I will CS as a guest.This is the best way to meet locals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived with a tribe in Sierra Leone, Africa
Directed three feature films - listed on IMDB.COM & Amazon. Search my name.
Spent several months in Cartagena, Colombia, my favorite place.
Have a novel "The Plants are Watching" , currently selling on Amazon.com, based on a feature movie I directed The Kirlian Witness

Teach, Learn, Share

I founded the iPhone boot Camps, workshops that teach iPhone application development. So far the workshops have had 2,000 students in the UK, USA, Canada and Australia.

I'm fortunate because I earn my living on the internet and can put these workshops together wherever I am so I can travel as much as possible.
