“Not all those who wander are lost." – J.R.R. Tolkien

Hello! My husband and I have recently embarked on a new adventure, having just moved to the beautiful landscapes of Italy. We're in the midst of settling in, with dreams of diving into the van life experience in the near future.

Before this exciting chapter, my life has been a vibrant tapestry of experiences across the globe. In my 20s, I lived abroad in Palestine-Israel, Spain, and Ecuador, soaking up the diverse cultures and rhythms of life. Eventually, I returned to my roots in the bustling heart of NYC, USA.

Professionally, my journey has been just as eclectic. I've worn many hats, from editor to teacher, first of languages and then of art. Currently, I'm in a state of flux, embracing the unknown and open to wherever life leads next.

I'm passionate about great conversations and good people, savoring delicious food and exploring unique fashion, diving into the world of art, and traveling to new places. I strive for minimalism and frugality, believing that the best things in life aren't things at all.

Looking forward to meeting like-minded souls who value the simple joys and rich experiences of life. Let's connect!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing to connect with like-minded people and share meaningful experiences. For me, it’s not just about finding a place to stay but about building connections, sharing stories, and learning from one another. I believe that the best way to truly understand a place is through the eyes of the people who live there. Whether it’s exploring hidden gems, sharing a meal, or simply having a great conversation, I’m here to create lasting memories and friendships. Let's make the world a bit smaller and more connected, one couch at a time.
