About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel throughout northeast Brazil for 3 weeks to document life and culture outside the stadium walls of the world cup through photos, videos and an interactive website!

ABOUT ME

I'm really friendly, outgoing and excitable. I would consider myself a pretty chill person and definitely not easily irritable. I live with 3 other roommates in Brooklyn. We have an amazing apartment and an awesome collective friendship, also we are all avid music lovers / players. I love meeting new people and especially love learning about different cultures and lifestyles in hopes of gaining a larger understanding of what exists out there in this mysterious world we live in.

PHILOSOPHY

Seize the day. Seize your life. This is our one chance to do something amazing with it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Brand new to this, but hoping to pay it forward by having some people come stay at my place before I go to Brazil in June where hopefully I'll be able to meet lots of awesome people by couchsurfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am just starting out my journey in the couchsurfing world and am really excited to join this community. It seems like such an amazing opportunity to meet people and travel while seeing the world through different eyes.
