I live in one of the remote, affordable Brooklyn neighborhoods with my partner and two kids; the kids and I love to travel and have been as far and often as the budget allows. My partner is from Romania originally, and speaks many languages, but usually opts to stay home while we globetrot.

I like all the normal things - travel, reading, movies. We are all pretty nerdy, with Star Wars, Star Trek, Buffy, and Highlander all on regular rotation on our television. I truly love potatoes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The opportunity to meet new people from all over the world; I've heard only good things about the experience from friends who have been doing this for years. I want to make sure my kids grow up around all sorts of different people from all over the world, and not isolated in an american bubble.
