About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet people with passion for life, and to find my own purpose in life (I'm still searching)

ABOUT ME

I was born outside of NYC and lived there as a child. I went to high school near Orlando, Florida and graduated at the University of Central Florida with a business degree in 2002. I lived in Chicago for a year in 2003. I then went back to UCF to complete a master's degree in Accounting and worked as a CPA in Atlanta for almost 12 years. I then quit my job and moved to Berlin in 2014, then to Knoxville in 2016 and back to Florida in 2018. I spent some time in Brazil and now I'm in Torino, Italy working on my Italian citizenship via jure sanguinis.

SEXUAL ORIENTATION

100% straight. This does not affect whether I host you, however, I believe this is important information to know up front.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I give people a place to stay! And of course show them stuff that they probably would never get to if they stayed in a hotel or did the typical touristy things.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had an overwhelmingly positive experience when I've surfed and hosted people. They tend to not be materialistic and are always friendly and courteous. Cool people to hang out with, and I've made some good friends.
