Born & raised in Queens, NY. Currently a senior at Hunter College studying Classics(like ancient Rome + Greece/Latin/philosophy) and Mathematics.

I'm professional couch surfer (as are most college students, right?) so I'm really good at making my presence as little known as possible - gotta make sure I keep those invites comin!

I'm a little bit of an introvert (no wild parties for me) but I do enjoy myself some Guinness and good conversation.

I love museums (my school is a 15 minute walk from the Met) and anything having do with history or art.

(My one issue..okay, let's make it two: I'm bad at working doors and showers with which I am unfamiliar - so I'll probably ask you to show me how both work( is that awkward? sorry))

I'll end with my life motto: YOLO. (Just kidding.) But if you have a life motto - I'm down to hear it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a student - which is universal for "I'm low on funds."

I've looked into this community a ton and only have heard/read good things. I'm eager to meet some good people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Although this is not a "personal" accomplishment, earlier this year I was given full access to the Parthenon (which has been closed to to the public since 1986) and experience it from the inside. Seeing Athens from inside the Parthenon is indescribable! I'd love to show you pictures!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not big on politics (Trump is currently the president of my country. I try not to think about it too much...)

I do love to talk philosophy (Camus, Nietzsche, Kant) and religion (I'm a little bit of a bible-nerd).

Practical matters - I'm from NYC. I'd love to share some insight with my hosts should they ever decide to visit the Big Apple!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd like to be as little of a nuisance as possible. I am very clean and I don't take up much space!

I'm open to treating my host to dinner/breakfast/drinks. I'll bring my own necessities.
