Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to learn how to about the places I travel to from the local people. I look forward to meeting new people and learning from them.

Interests

Despite how turrible they always have been, I remain a loyal New York Knicks fan. I'm a huge basketball fan and love to play and watch.

I might be bad at it, but I have been playing guitar since I was 15 with little progress.

I'm also an undercover anime nerd who watches a ton of stuff every season.
