ABOUT ME
Bicycles.
Lived in Amsterdam for 10 months.
Lived in Tel Aviv for 4 years.
Currently live in Salt Lake City. I moved out here for grad school, which I finished in 2016. I am still here due to finding work I love, inspiring art projects, the dearest of friends, and spectacular nature.
Traveling to Japan this winter!
Daydreamer.
PHILOSOPHY
"In search of destiny, you will often find yourself obliged to change direction." -Paulo Coelho
Do what you have to do.
The only truth that exists is right now...not what can be later.
Sometimes looking for reasons is an excuse. If there is no reason, but it feels right, it is right.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Meetings, hosting, being hosted
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My first year of Couchsurfing: I (meaning my roommates in Europe) hosted 6 people in our Amsterdam apartment, and I surfed in Paris and Antwerp. Since then I mostly meet people for drinks, coffee, a hang out, but have also done a bit of surfing as well. I haven't yet had another living experience where I could host...until now!
