What's up surfers! I'm Franklin. I'm originally from Chicago but I've traveled for the majority of my life. I've lived in some amazing cities like Miami, LA, Manhattan, Chicago, Dublin, and Prague, To say I love traveling is an understatement. It really is apart me. I love the thrill and excitement of meeting new people, experiencing different cultures, and learning amazing histories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm couchsurfing because I believe life is all about creating memories and exploring this vast planet we call earth. We only have this one life to live, and I don't want to wake up one day and thing about all of the things I 'could' have done. There are so many people, cultures and sites around the world that I would love to see. And couchsurfing helps turn these dreams into easy realities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's so hard to choose from just one. Backpacking in Italy and staying in Tuscany, meeting an incognito prime minister at a bar unknowingly and swimming beside dolphins in the Bahamas would be my top ones.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'll always share what I can. Whether it's funny stories that make you laugh so hard you fart, a drink at a bar, advice on some of my own travels, or just an ear and companion to have for the night. From me, if you're my host, I think one of the best things I can give is my friendship!
