About Me

Smiling and optimistic nomad.

*9/23: in Philly and NY for the next few weeks*
If you request a couch then make sure you look at my profile and in your request tell me why you're interested to surf with me.

CURRENT MISSION

Make other people smile. Not worry about the future.

ABOUT ME

Home in the US was Philadelphia, Since 10 years ago have been living, working, and traveling in other countries.

I like to spend a lot of time outdoors, being active, eating, and learning new things. I used to climb, but now I've transitioned into hiking.
If there's anything specific you want to know then don't be shy and ask me, or just come and meet me!

IT freelancer and tradooor

PHILOSOPHY

Be Happy.
Try new things.
Be good.
Do these, be persistent with what you want, but don't worry because everything works out just great in the end.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is just an awesome way to connect with other like-minded and friendly people.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

These days meeting with CSers and going to events. Would like to host again once I have a place somewhere.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first time couchsurfing was in 2007 in San Diego, I met some really great people there. We made a bonfire on Fiesta Island and the next day they took me to a cool artsy sorta street festival with live music and people selling stuff. I got hooked after that.

I‘ve hosted a lot of Couchsurfers and been hosted a lot too :)
