Hi CS!

I work in chocolate product innovation and marketing in NYC. I like to be social and have fun. I enjoy dancing at a club as much as hiking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While in China, I and a friend got trapped at an ice festival about 2 hours from Beijing. All the hotels were booked so we asked a taxi driver about somewhere else we could stay. He told us he had a friend with room at his place for us. It was past 12am and he had taken us about 30 mins from the festival. We were getting worried that he was driving us out somewhere to take out our organs for the black market like those horror stories you hear. Around 1am we stop off a highway and meet an old man that leads us to an old walled in courtyard with private room attached. It was a great find but ended up costing a small fee.

Interests

Learning. I probably spend at least 2 hours a day on Wikipedia. Always trying to learn a new language, but that changes a lot. Fashion. Work in clothing. Living in Korea has been a great experience for that. Food. Love trying new food. One of the best parts of travel.
