About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find beauty in everything, and live as if I'm traveling even when I haven't left the city in months.

ABOUT ME

After a whirlwind of an upbringing (moving from the US to France to Poland to the US, constantly traveling to all corners of the whirlwind) my adult life seems comparatively much more settled. But then again, one cannot "settle" in New York. Moving and playing across every corner of this great city, I love meeting new people and hearing great stories. My story right now is that I'm beginning the path to midwifery and getting some doula experience under my belt.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

There are so many yet-undiscovered magical places in this self proclaimed center of the universe. Give me an excuse to go exploring! Whether it's eating strange foods in Jackson Heights, Queens, or perusing boutiques in Soho, there are so many interesting things to see and I want to go out and see them with you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to the Couchsurfing Project, but I've done a fair share of couchsurfing. On a recent south-west roadtrip from Phoneix to Denver, I found myself reconnecting with friends from Argentina, friends of roommates, and friends of my older sister. As well as a couch or a floor, conversations with our hosts offered me some of the most enoyable memories of the trip.

Interests

home birth, or at the very least, reclaiming birth as an empowering experience for the mother.
