CURRENT MISSION

I want to live 'till I die

ABOUT ME

I can't really describe myself, but I can describe how you will probably see me (I've heard this is all true).

You will:
- Think I'm tall
- Find me awkward yet funny at the same time
- Think I'm rad. Because really...I'm kind of awesome.

PHILOSOPHY

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you have always imagined.

Go big or go home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My whole life I have hosted friends in my apartments. I always had a couch with a pull out bed because I never knew when a friend would come to stay. I LOVE hosting people. Sadly, the couchbed had to stay in NYC and now I only have a loveseat, but I still love hosting! And hopefully I can help people out on here...in exchange, hopefully people can help ME out one day!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I usually host people, but I did officially couchsurf! It was only one night in Paris but it was super cool to be on the other side of things for once.

In the past, I have crashed on friend's/acquaintances' floors/beds/couches/lawn chairs etc. I'm easy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I could list several amazing and breathtaking moments from my travels...but honestly the one that stands out the most in my mind was my visit to the Western (Wailing) Wall in Jerusalem. It doesn't matter what religion you are or if you aren't spiritual at all. There is something really powerful about pressing your face to a thing so holy, and knowing that millions of people have been doing the same thing for literally thousands of years. In a world where buildings, presidents, cities, and faces come and go so quickly and mean so little...to be in the presence of something so old and spiritual is truly powerful.
