About Me

Hi! I am a big fan of meeting new people and learning something from everyone I meet. My life philosophy is “bias toward action” and I try to maximize the stoke and live life to the fullest. I’m a 27yr old from Minnesota who’s living in New York City in the neighborhood of Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Just moved back from Dublin where I was living for the last two years! LGBTQI+ friendly straight ally :)

To set expectations:
1. I have a couch in a private room, you can come and go as you please but I am busy these days so I likely wont be able to hang out that much! I live in Williamsburg which is a cute neighborhood in Brooklyn and it’s a 5 min Subway to Manhattan on the L train. There’s lots and lots and lots to do in the city.🤘
2. I’ve only lived in NYC for a couple months so don’t have many recommendations for the city yet 😂
3. All are welcome, open to folks with no references yet just send me a lil note about yourself. Cheers! 😊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think getting to meet people living in the area I’m traveling to provides a much richer and in-depth experience for both people and allows you to meet someone in a totally different context than you’re used to. I try to share what I have when possible and really appreciate when others pay it forward and do the same!

So many people hosted me when I was traveling...now is my turn to pay it forward :)

Note: Couchsurfing is not a dating app...that's all. 🙃
