About Me

ABOUT ME

I currently live in Brooklyn, NY. I went to college here in the big city and lived here for 5 years but left to travel the country in a camper with a bunch of friends for about a year. I've been back in the city for a few months after living in Hudson, NY and now that I'm a little bit more settled, I try and get out as much as I can. I love to read, love to draw, love to camp, love to adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's for livin'.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCH SURFING

Used to have people come and stay a couple years ago when I was still living in New York City. My roommate at the time had the Couch Surfing account and he turned me on to it. Now it's been a couple years and living upstate I thought I'd get back on here and travel and see if I can make some friends of my own to stay and to stay with.

COUCH SURFING EXPERIENCE

Great experience, and great opportunity to meet likeminded people who live to travel and experience something new.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in a camper for a year. I found an old Toyota Bandit, renovated the interior and drove with five friends out West. It was challenging and weird, wild and wonderful. I've seen all the lower 48 states with hopes to see Alaska and Hawaii within the next year.
