CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I was raised by wolves. I've lived in several countries, in many cities, collecting languages along the way. I am currently in graduate school in New York City, and most recently I lived in Madrid.

I have a hard time staying in one place very long. I collect cameras and I like to write. I love to cook and bake. I am obsessed with beards and chocolate and dogs. I drink a lot of tea. I know about twenty words in Swedish. I laugh a lot. I might have an addiction to pineapple. I am definitely addicted to pineapple.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm currently living in New York City, and I am always open to meeting new people and getting a better lay of the land.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed in Paris, Brugge, Holland and Copenhagen. Later on in Madrid and Valencia. I met some of my first friends in Madrid via Couchsurfing. I have yet to host; it's never been the right time and I want to be the best host possible. So I am looking forward to that!
