About Me

Hello!

A bit about me: I was born in Chicago, have spent a few years living in Florida, went to school in Boston, and worked in Washington D.C. before moving to Israel in April. So yeah, home is a bit of an abstract concept for me.

I'm a lifelong tennis player, and I'm obsessive and extremely passionate about certain things, including: the Beatles, chocolate, coffee, figs, films, books, travel.

At the moment, as all couch surfers should, I have a bushy beard. I found peanut butter in it the other day. Other than that, I'm extremely clean. That's it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because Couchsurfing attracts similar humans and I would love to get to know as many wandering, curious, adventurous, (possibly cheap and on a budget as well) people as I can!
