ABOUT ME

I'm a social worker for senior with serious mental illness. I live in a jewish & dominican community wayyyy uptown. I love to dance and have joy in life.

PHILOSOPHY

We're all in this together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed in India, Turkey, Morocco, Valencia, NOLA and Santa Fe. The experiences range from being groped (not great) to finding a new best friend (awesome). I've met some really interesting people and had some very memorable experiences.

I have not been able to host much as my roommates have changed and their comfort level with strangers has varied.

I think couchsurfing is even more important now in the days of airb&b to show radical kindness and hospitality to people from all backgrounds.
