After graduating I found myself quickly tangled up in the rat race of NYC. Though it’s always home and has a special place in my heart, the city can consume you. 5 years later I had a good job, nice apartment, many material items but I wasn’t happy. I gave up my place, quit my job, and hit the road! Been traveling around the world ever since. I’ve learned that settings are only half of the equation of an adventure, it’s the people that makes the experience memorable.

Music taste is eclectic. I’m all over the place - classic rock, hip-hop (old and new), indie, old school r&b, and right now I’m going through a jazz phase.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I view traveling as a continued education. Though, compared to some, I’m still in primary school, I’ve been to some cool places and love to chat about people I’ve met and experiences I’ve had. Even more than blabbing about myself I love to listen to others travel stories!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I’m a pretty mellow guy. Although I like going out and having a good time at the bars I also enjoy cooking a nice meal and chatting it up. At your request I can pick up a bottle of wine to share! It may not be the most expensive in the shop but I have a knack for picking out a good value.
