About Me

Upcoming trips summer/autumn 2019: NYC, Boston, Qatar, Lebanon, Turkey, Greece, and France!

MISSION
I want to meet my fellow Earthlings.

ABOUT ME
I don't think I fit nicely into this box. You'll just have to find out! (Not using Couchsurfing as Tinder)

PHILOSOPHY
I'm an equal opportunist. Come as you are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To travel in a different way. Most of us who travel can afford a hostel at the minimum but meeting a local, learning more about life in the city/country, and being entrusted by a stranger in their home is a completely different experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

Big fan of indie, folk or acoustic but dabble in a bit of everything.

I'm constantly listening to podcasts and watching documentaries. Open to suggestions.

Non-fiction reader, only occasionally dabble in fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, let's meet and chat about it!

Teach, Learn, Share

As cheesy as this sounds, I believe every individual has something to teach or offer to someone else. So long as we come from a place of mutual respect we can generally agree to disagree? We all have such different upbringings, identities, and societal pressures that it's hard to not learn from someone else's experience. Why else are we on here?
