I have been a part of Couchsurfing for many years now and it continues to provide me with friends all over the world. I travel by myself for months at a time, but I am never really alone when I'm Couchsurfing and that is so important :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love hosting and I love surfing! The most difficult thing about Couchsurfing is saying goodbye to new friends after just a few short days.

Interests

Live theater, sitting on the top of double-decker buses, walking for hours, standing at the bow of ships, and scotch.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2005 I traveled with my 90-year-old grandfather back to his hometown of Belcastro, Italy. He hadn't seen it since he left for America at the age of 12 and never thought he would again.
