About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To try new everything

ABOUT ME

I love making adventures - big and little - wherever possible. I'm easygoing, a little messy, pretty silly, definitely friendly. I spend a lot of time with kids, which is something I like. I see a lot of theater and I love dance and art. I love playing board games and card games. I love languages. I love geography. I grew up in Brooklyn, and I'm proud of that. I'm usually up for anything!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have stayed on the couches of some incredible people in a couple of different countries, and have met surfers from around the world in New York, which is my hometown. I'm hoping to talk my roommate into hosting surfers soon, but in the mean time, I'm happy to have coffee with anyone visiting New York and offer my sincerest pizza recommendations.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Overwhelmingly positive. Sometimes strange. Not always comfortable. A good reminder of the kindness of strangers. A good opportunity to put faces with all the places of the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The stars above the Atacama desert, and remembering them during a physics class.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you a lot about theatre. I can also teach you Spanish, as long as you don't know too too much Spanish yet. And English! And I can teach you how to understand the New York Subway System.
