Hello! I'm Chris. I'm a new couch surfer! I’m currently in the midst of a long term backpacking trip starting in India where I discovered couch surfing! I’m excited to return home in June and be a couch surfer myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people to share experiences, laughs and make memories! Some of my best experiences traveling have been with locals I’ve met couch surfing or on the street - it brings a new level of knowledge, experience and intimacy with a destination. It has been great to make some sincere friends along the way.

I'm forever curious, courteous and respectful.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite Movie: Taxi Driver
Favorite Tv Show: The Sopranos

Currently reading: The war that ended peace - it’s about WW1, a topic I’m woefully ignorant about. I’m more of a non fiction and journalism type of person. I constantly am learning about new things, usually just for the sake of it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’m not sure it’s amazing, but I quit my job in December 2022 to pursue my dream of traveling longer term. It’s been an amazing journey so far

What I Can Share with Hosts

This is hard to say it depends on the person but I assure you I will leave your place as clean or cleaner than I left it. Please allow me to help with chores, it’s the least I can do.
