Living loudly, proudly, adventurously. Have been a "digital nomad" working and traveling for the past 2 years. OMW to Austin, TX to settle down for a while.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've hosted a bunch of times over the past few years in my different apartments in Brooklyn, met some incredible people that I know I will see again in this life.

Surfed a few places, most notably in Bermuda, where I got to know a totally different side of the island.
