ABOUT ME

24 and (was)working full-time(on hiatus until further notice) at an art studio in Tribeca. Graduated from SUNY Oneonta last May. I play the banjo, brew delicious beers, ride bicycles, hike, build things, etc. I like to hunt down strange and interesting facts/history/stories and always down for an adventure. Let me surf your couch!

PHILOSOPHY

'Every life is many days, day after day. We walk through ourselves, meeting robbers, ghosts, giants, old men, young men, strangers abroad, wives, widows, brothers-in-love, but always meeting ourselves.'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I always like to help out a fellow couchsurfer - I host when i can or suggest someone who can help - and i when i surf i try to make it as symbiotic a situation as possible..

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed with hospitable strangers over eastern Queensland, Spain and Morocco, although i just recently had my first official couchsurfing.com stay. I met up with a great host in Bhalil, Morocco for a few days who really was a great inspiring friend to us. Hope I might be able to do the same for other adventurers in the future.
