CURRENT MISSION

Traveling is the best education!!

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in New York, but have lived in North Carolina, Florida, Philadelphia and Los Angeles.

I have traveled to 23 countries. Not many people can say they have been to Iraq; I was there, not by choice, in 2005 with the US Marines. Amazing experience, but don't expect any war stories :)...well, not for free at least, you're going to have to buy me drinks in exchange for that.

I love to meet new people, visit new places, and try different food!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a minimalist: owning less is more. I hoard experiences rather than materials.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Although I have traveled extensively, most of my travels were via hostels rather than couchsurfing. I have couchsurfed in Netherlands, and met a wonderful through it. I'd love to couchsurf more.
