ABOUT ME

MAIN LIFE OBJECTIVE: I would like to learn to scuba dive before the end of the summer

Photography Major in NYC, just looking to meet some cool people, willing to host or be hosted.

Buyer beware, I get a ludicrous amount of requests so I do it on a first come first serve basis.

If you're looking for a typical guide to NYC look elsewhere as I have a lot of school and track team commitments during the day. I will however try to get us into a lot of actual fun stuff after hours. Depending on what you like we could go party, go for a run or go climb a bridge. (The view from the top of williamsburg bridge is fantastic)

Also ignore the "last login" thing saying I'm in San Francisco, it's been doing that since I signed up.

PHILOSOPHY

You were so busy worrying if you could, you didn't stop to think if you should.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host people from 1-4 days, any more than that is a burden on me I'll be honest. I can't really host more than 3 people at a time either. I can TRY but it'll be tough.

Germans get special consideration I'll be honest since most of my foreign friends are German.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Did two weeks in Germany last year, best two weeks of my life. If I can help anyone to have a similar experience in the United States then the karmic circle is complete.

Between the hours of 3:00 and 4:00 am a few months ago I was the highest up person in the united states (430 Meters) thanks to 432 Park's crane.
