About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To meet the most interesting people around.

ABOUT ME

Currently based in New York City (Brooklyn) wishing to travel around the world. Love to meet people from everywhere and just learn more about everything and everyone! I'm a big FOODIE when I travel - which basically means I love to stuff my face until I feel like throwing up. What can I say - I love to try to the best food around. I also enjoy learning culture and going to museums and just interacting with everyone that I could. I have been working at a nonprofit called AIDS Walk in both New York and Los Angeles for almost 2 years now. Would love to meet you so message me if you're in the town I'm in!

PHILOSOPHY

Jump now, fear later.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Loved my first 2 experiences with CS and now I would love to first meet up with people for coffeee and eventually host some people at my apartment.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed twice and loved both times while I was studying abroad in Argentina. I still talk to some of the people I met. I would love to give back to the community when I do get my own place. But as of now I would like to accommodate people socially by taking them around and exchanging our cultures and views over coffee or a drink.

Interests

Music...lots and lots of it. Politics. Books. International Relations and how cultures play a part in it. Cultures other than mine. Habitual life of other cultures. Ethnic Cuisine. Tennis. Running. Parks in urban landscapes. Cardigans.
