Hey there!

I'm Adam. I joined couchsurfing a few years ago, and have been sooo amazed at this community and the thoughtful messages I've received over the years (and of course the friends I've made along the way).

I recently moved in October 2023, and now just live by myself in a 1 bedroom apartment in prime Williamsburg, Brooklyn, right by the water, - just one 5 minute subway stop from Manhattan (or easy access to the ferry).

So given that I've now moved apartments, please note that a lot of my older reviews which reference my home won't be applicable. (See the "my home" section for some more info)...

A little about me:

I value experiences over things.

I'm very easy going and laid back.

I'm a bit of a goof and know when to laugh at myself.

I love to go out, stay up late, dance, be outside, and want to explore and enjoy life as much as I can for how long I've got it.

P.S., I sincerely apologize for Donald Trump. He is an absolute embarrassment and the large majority of Americans are ashamed he was elected. If you support him, then we will not get along haha.

*Also, please read the "my home" section to make sure it's a good match as well, and that you will be comfortable with less than ideal privacy, and won't be bothered by my late night lifestyle!!! Thank you!! Also, please add me on social media if you’re requesting to stay (don't just message me your social media but add me instead):
