Born and raised in NY, lived inLA for two years now heading back. I love exploring, traveling, and meeting new people. I have a pretty wide range of interests from medicine to music and everything in between. I am currently pursuing a career in medicine. Whether as a surfer or a host I can't wait to have some more good times with this amazing community.

Update: I apologize but Lucy and I are doing a cross country trip to Brooklyn and won't be available to host until we settle down.

On my current cross country trip I am traveling with my girlfriend, Lucy.. Here's her profile.. https://www.couchsurfing.com/people/lucy-kassel

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always liked getting to know new places and people, and for me, I feel like couch surfing truly offers the perfect blend of that. I had great experiences couch surfing and have met some simply amazing people that helped make my trip as great as it was. It was so nice getting a chance to host dozens of people from all over the world while they listed LA, I'm truly grateful for the beautiful connections that couch surfing has allowed me to make.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a huge fan of music so it's kind of hard to say favorite but I really enjoy classic rock, zeppelin is probably my favorite of the classic. Of newer music I'm a huge fan of Red Hot Chili Peppers and Cage the Elephant, could listen to any of their albums on repeat. My favorite movie is Reservoir Dogs. I love a log in the sea of Cortez and Cannery Row by Steinbeck. Also Micro by Michael Crichton is pretty intense.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Driven from NY to LA over the span of 6 weeks

Teach, Learn, Share

I think there is so much to learn from talking-to people from all walks of life with their different experiences. I love learning new and different things that I may not have even considered or known of otherwise. I'd love to share anything my experiences have to offer as well!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good times, memories, stories, and food/drink etc. I really enjoy sharing when possible so I'm pretty open minded with that.

Also for your convenience we always have our own air mattress/sheets/pillows/towels etc.
