I recently left my full time job after 9 years in NYC and am looking to explore and meet new people.

I am a part time YouTuber, photographer, yoga and running enthusiast. I love to explore the great outdoors as well as travel the ins and outs of cities. But it's the people that make traveling most fun - I love meeting new people from all backgrounds and forming new friendships.

Most recently I spent a week in the Norwegian fjords camping, hiking, and kayaking with 12 new friends. Fun fact is that at home in NYC I have a record collection spanning over 300+ albums.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a solo traveller I appreciate the built in community aspect of this platform. I value the insight of the locals and ability to form friendships around the world.

My friend and I tried couch surfing a few years back and ended up having one the best weeks and experiences with our host who later turned friend. I'm hopeful and excited for more positive experiences!

Interests

I've become an avid runner in recent years, running the NYC marathon twice! I love going to museums, seeing live musical performances, jazz bars, outdoor hikes, tasting food and drink from all backgrounds! I have a thirst for life.

I also love interior design, a good movie, and a fire pit on a chilly night with a glass of wine.
