About Me

ABOUT ME
They would say that i'm outgoing and fascinated by everything. I enjoy the small things and always want to learn more. Also, I am full of surprises, hidden talents, and fun (albeit useless) facts.
PHILOSOPHY
Whatever you are, be a good one.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I used couch surfing while traveling in Europe several years ago. I am excited about opening up my home to others in the same situation!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I stayed in a houseboat in Amsterdam many years ago. So cool!
Interests
I love NYC history and learning about my city. I collect children's books in foreign languages. Also, I speak 5 languages and am on a mission to learn 5 more before I turn 70. Think I can do it??
My time is spent with friends at parks, museums, and markets. I enjoy good music, outrageous food, and the minutiae of every day life in NYC.
