I am a 23 year old bartender originally from NY. My background contains a lot more than that, but at the moment bartending has become part of my identity. I have found the troubles of an office life pushing me towards travel and exploration more and more, and thus the couchsurfing profile.

I currently live in northeast DC and absolutely love it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am traveling all around the US with my best buddy for the next four weeks! We need to stay economical while traveling and love to meet new people, go grab a drink, and find all the local dives. We're friendly, low key, and clean up well.

Interests

I like to have days off during the week, like a monday, where I can explore parts of my city Ive never seen before in a less busy environment. Museums, arboretums, bookstores, pawn shops, food trucks, and art stores. I'm a painter by nature and constantly try to remind myself to keep up with it.

Being social and outgoing is important to me. To get to know another person, inside and out, or whatever they choose to share, is essential in learning why all people and creatures are important.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Live in Belize! Moved there on my own when I was 19 for 5 months. Nothing could compare to the experience. It's my second home and I hope to go back soon to see how my family there has grown.
