I am an author and New York Times contributor born in Boston and living in New York City. I love to travel and to learn inside new worlds. My full name is Aspen Matis, and you can find me on Facebook if you'd like to double check that I'm real. :) Or google my name and you will find my work. :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I also love hiking, and when I was 19, I walked from Mexico to Canada, following a continuous wilderness footpath called the Pacific Crest Trail. In the summers when I was 20 and 21, I hiked from Georgia to Maine on the Appalachian Trail--and I LOVE hike and adventure, in new places.

I look forward to all adventures to come, in this global community!
