About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore as much of Europe as possible over the next four months

ABOUT ME

I'm a student of architecture in Boston, MA. After 4 months of interning at a Boston based architecture firm, I will be venturing off to Germany with 30 of my classmates to study architecture in Berlin.

I grew up on Long Island, NY but have lived in Boston ever since I first came here for school. My life changed drastically when I decided to leave the business school and pursue architecture. I appreciate arch. for many things, but above all else, I'm fascinated by how the aspect of arch. itself encompasses so many aspects of our daily lives. My desire to pursue it came from recognizing the absence and need for creativity in my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new to couchsurfing but I hope to frequently couchsurf while traveling in Europe and make new friends who will host and show me around their home city. I've hosted several surfers with my roommates back in Boston. They're a great group of guys who are always up for meeting interesting new people

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have yet to couchsurf myself but my roommates have previously hosted at our house on three separate occasions

Interests

I really enjoy hiking and camping, as well as running. As of now I've only traveled to two other countries, but son that is about to drastically change. I'm a big fan of movies, and cooking is one of my favorite things to do, especially with friends. I am also a big fan of learning the history of cities, and their buildings and people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my most memorable experiences was when I traveled to Costa Rica with my roommates two years ago. We hostel-hopped around the south-western coast of Tico and saw some amazing sites. Hostel hopping with only one packed bag, I was completely out of my element but I loved every moment of it and it has shaped how I view traveling and experiencing other cultures.

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, Costa Rica, Germany, Netherlands, Portugal, South Korea, Spain, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In
