*Currently in New Jersey*

Hey y’all! My name is Alex and I’m a former student athlete at Rutgers. I graduated with a B.A. in journalism and media studies. I’m also working towards my master’s in communication and media with a PR specialization at the same school.

Besides all that, I’m extremely passionate about traveling and any new experience that comes my way. I am an adventure seeker and won’t pass up an opportunity when I see one. Life is short and the only answer I live by is Yes!

Although I’m not able to host, I would love to meet up with people from around the world. Let’s go on an adventure, even if we’re not going that far!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We don’t regret the things we did, but the things we didn’t do.

I'm thinking about taking a road trip around the U.S. this summer 2021. I will be fully vaccinated and taking the necessary precautions as best I can. If you'd like to meet or could host me, I will forever be indebted to you.

I love a good experience and everyone has their own story to share. I want to learn about as many different cultures as I can and get to know as many people as possible along the way!

Music, Movies, and Books

Open to any kind of music, except country.

A big fan of thrillers and movies that make you think — Shutter Island, Silence of the Lambs, Seven...

I enjoy a good self-help book because I like reading about different life perspectives. I’m a sucker for teen fiction and getting lost in a fictional world where anything is possible.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I gave a short speech in Mandarin to a thousand Chinese students in Beijing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think having new experiences by yourself is awesome, but having a local guide can definitely change your entire experience about a place and its culture. I love the idea of meeting people from all walks of life and hearing about the stories they want to share.

I’m an open book and I love asking questions about anything. I see myself as a life learner and the more questions you ask, the more things you can learn about a person, thing, place or experience.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good laugh, meal, story and swimming lessons (I was a competitive swimmer for 14 years).
