A dreamer from the bronx who seeks enlightenment, pleasure, knowledge and the sublime. Books, essay writing, biking, yoga, and food are my medium.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To me, travel goes beyond existing in a foreign city, shuffling from one monument to the next. I want to partake in local and personal experiences, and I want friends all over the world.

I’ve recently hosted for the first time and would love to do so again.
