CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world and make people smile as I serve them homemade ice cream

ABOUT ME

I was raised in a suburb of New York with an Italian American family. We emphasized family, friends, and phenomenal food. Growing up in such an enjoyable environment, I had to grow up and explore the world outside of my New York Suburb. I had the opportunity to live in Rome for 4 months during my University education. I fell in love with traveling and meeting new people and I continue to do this every free minute I get. I lived in Costa Rica for 2 years, starting a healthcare company (www.hulihealth.com). As long as I am with other positive people I love to do anything especially if its active. I love sports, cooking, exploring the world, and trying new things. When I have free time it is rare that you hear the word NO

PHILOSOPHY

You fail at everything you don't try! Be a positive impact with everything you do and ALWAYS make it so you are invited back. I yearn to beat all expectations because the saddest thing in life is wasted talent!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

You give what you get! I am very comfortable with hosting those of similar interests at my house with expectations that others would do the same!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed throughout the United States by connecting with friends from University and Highschool but not through a website yet. I would love to make new friends and try out couchsurfing. I have learned to sleep on anything, even a tile floor :)
