My name is Dov, I am 26 and live in Manhattan, NY with my pup. I've lived in NY for a little over 3 years working in the Finance

I am new to Couchsurfing, but have heard nothing but incredible life changing stories! I want to meet genuine, passionate, and inspiring people who have a love for their culture and way of life. I think being able to share that perspective and your own unique experience with others can be very powerful.

I've been described as selfless, compassionate, outgoing, adventurous and funny

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet awesome and caring people. I think immersing yourself when visiting new cities is important. To really get to know the places from the experience of locals. It is exciting to discover new cities with people who know and love it.

I also want to learn more about others' cultures and speak new languages. Life finds crazy ways of introducing you to amazing people, but you have to be willing and open your door :)
