I've been living in Manhattan's East Village since 2009, but my family has been in the neighborhood since the early 20th century. I grew up in suburban Boston, and the northeast corner of the United States is the place in the world I know the best and love the most. I'm a stagehand by trade - I run around Broadway hanging lights, building scenery, and handing props to actors - but theater is just the proverbial day job. My true passions lie in organizing for worker justice, and other such struggles for human liberation.

PHILOSOPHY

Take it easy, but take it.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've had the pleasure of both surfing and hosting during my time in the community. In 2009-10 I surfed all over the US - from Minneapolis to New Orleans, Arcata to Athens - and did a similar thing in Eastern Europe in the winter/spring of 2018, surfing Warsaw, Vilnius, Riga, Tallinn, Odessa, and Lviv. I host when I can, and had a couple nice stretch of surfers in 2014/15 and 2021.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCES

Late-night conversations, new bars, ferry rides, museums, movies, barbecue, discovering how hard it is to explain baseball, art-walks, hikes, getting high, drinking tea, so so so much exploring
