A native New Yorker, who is perhaps happiest when venturing out of the city to new places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Signed up ages ago, but never actively participated. In my travels, particularly in the past year, I've gotten to meet and know some members of the community--travelers and locals alike--and it's renewed my interest. Unfortunately, I don't have the space to host at the moment but am always down for a meetup.

Interests

Art/Film/Theatre, Live Music, Traveling, Writing, People Watching, Conversing, Beering

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Not sure that I've ever done anything truly amazing, but I try to face/do things that scare me. I have some pretty irrational fears--reclining Buddhas, for one--and some less irrational ones--e.g., water--and every time I seek out and stare down a creepy statue or go kayaking/sailing or hop on a motorbike, which I have a knack for falling off of, face-first, it feels pretty damn exhilarating.

Teach, Learn, Share

At any given time, I am attempting to learn either a language or an instrument, or both--currently, it's German and the ukelele.

Countries I’ve Lived In

South Korea, United Kingdom, United States
