About Me

24 year old from a small town in Long Island. Bit pretty hard by the travel bug a few years ago while studying abroad in Spain. Currently living in Suzhou, China and just trying to continue wanderlusting around the world and meet some cool people in the process.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and meet cool people. I think couch surfing is great in that it allows you to travel and stay with people who are interested in the same thing/ type of lifestyle.
In my experience it has only been a positive experience. I've met some of the most amazing yet humble people from couch surfing and gained life long friends/ family.

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

Music, I know it's kind of a cop out but I love anything and everything.. I'm more of a listen to the radio and see what comes on type of person.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once chased a guy down who stole my phone on New Years eve in Madrid, and got it back... Don't know if this qualifies as amazing, but it's a pretty good story.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you anything I know about Spanish, or the Italian and Chinese I've picked up on. That being said Id love any help or practice in any of those.
I really like to cook, I've been storing some recipes from countries I've visited.
I'm learning the guitar right now, so I'm definitely open to any tips from anyone who plays! :)
And mostly I just like to have genuine, real conversations.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A conversation, and some laughs (ideally while we all sit around and play the guitar and sing but without the music is cool too.)

Countries I’ve Visited

Bahamas, Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, Canada, China, Czech Republic, Egypt, England, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Italy, Mexico, Monaco, Morocco, Philippines, Poland, South Korea, Spain, Thailand
