About Me

Very easy going and socially conscious person. Open to trying new things with the open limitation being my ex college student budget (this does NOT mean skimping on our host for the sake of a FREE hotel, the difference is very clear). I generally get along with most anyone, but tend to the side of a introvert a bit more.
I am not very religious, but I respect all religions and cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

So I am graduating UMass Amherst this coming May and after consulting with my older/(wiser is arguable) friends, my girlfriend and I planned a cross country road-trip. I haven't used couch surfing before, but I have tried Air B n B and found the experience enjoyable. The classic belief of Xenia, or guest friendship is a ancient tradition that I hope reminds ever more alive with the ease of technology.
My interpretation of a couch surfing stay is to be as gracious to the host for opening their home to us and treat them with respect and care (Golden Rule). We are pretty easy going people, looking to see sites and culture that no hotel can match.

We love hiking, music, beer, nature, dogs, movies, and pretty much all types of art.
