From New Jersey, by way of Florida, I now find myself in the DC area.

Above all else, I am a high school teacher. Eternally, I am a neighborhood-loving barista. The parts of life I enjoy most are seeing new places, listening to new music, trying new food, and meeting good people. That's why I'm here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My former roommate, Lauren, introduced me to the wonders of CouchSurfing back in Florida. After we both ended in DC with a fellow CSer, Autumn, we hosted lots of surfers on our comfy couch. I love hearing other people's stories and sharing ideas about life and music and food.

I've only stayed on 1 couch (Suz from Richmond) and she was great! I'm looking forward to the next adventure.
