CURRENT MISSION

to live on the ocean

ABOUT ME

I love anything that frightens me. I never want to look back and regret not trying something. I love to learn and to teach myself as much as possible. I'm an average guitar player and love anyone that can teach me something new.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't ask someone to do something you are not willing to do yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I currently own a 1 bedroom apartment in New York City's Upper East Side. I have a convertable sofa that will comfortably sleep two... any more and the NYC apartment could get a little tight. I live in a great neighborhood 3 blocks from the subway and am only a 5 minute walk to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Central Park.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Please don't let the reply rate fool you. I get about 5-10 requests a day. I always reply to the legit requests. If I get a cut and paste request I tend to give a cut and paste response.
I love to travel, but it can be expensive....My brother told me about this site so I figured I give it a try. I have crashed on numerous friends couches throughout the country and have surfed a few CSers places in Hawaii.

Interests

Music...mostly acoustic guitar, non-fiction, bungee jumping, snorkling, skydiving, traveling (road trips especially), camping, hiking, listening to live music and discovering new things.
