About Me

CURRENT MISSION

TO MEET THE WORLD

ABOUT ME

HELLO! I'm currently a television journalist in Springfield, Illinois!

I have plans as of now to head to Europe this summer to catch a leg of the tour De France. LAst summer I spent 70 days biking across North America. Made it from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific (4,200 miles). I now get paid very little to tell peoples stories in the Midwest where I have no ties...but am learning to enjoy myself here.

I am a recent college graduate from my beloved Quinnipiac University two hours outside of New York.

I look forward to finding adventures on this website!

-Ben

PHILOSOPHY

If it has cheese....eat it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am willing to build to this community because this world needs trust. I used a similar site to stay in a few cities in Europe a few years ago and it made me believe in humanity. Since I now spend my life telling stories...I plan to find a few on here!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Two couch stays.....Milan Italy and Leon France.

Both will not be forgotten...got to meet a couple of amazing people!
