CURRENT MISSION

To see the world and meet great people in the process.

ABOUT ME

Hey there, I am a 32-year-old New Yorker who is looking to see as much of the world as possible. After couch surfing 3 summers ago in Europe, and meeting a lot of cool people in South America , I felt like it would be great to give back and host in NYC. So far the last two years I have done just that. Hosting people from 15 different countries, and having a world of awesome and unique experiences.

In my humble opinion, I live in the best part of Manhattan: a short walk to union square, west village, washington sq park, east village, meat packing district, and chelsea. I am a few blocks to the ABCDEFM train to take you all over the city and Brooklyn. There is no better location in NYC.You can walk from my apartment to china town and to times square and everywhere in between. If your into night-life and going to great bars/lounges, my area is known around the city for having some of the best.
