I'm a 28 year old filmmaker living in New York City. I also run a YouTube travel channel named Robbie Backpacking. I love traveling and recently got introduced to the site by my buddy Drew Wolin. Keep traveling, keep living!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see more of the world. So far I've traveled through China, Japan, Thailand, Spain, France, England, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Israel, and all across the United States (my home.) I want to expand my knowledge of the world by seeing how people live first hand. I try to bring some of those experiences to the world through YouTube travel videos. My goal is to continue showing people the best the world has to offer.

Interests

I like listening to music, playing my guitar, watching TV and film, making YouTube videos, writing screenplays, stand up comedy, cooking, museums, playing/watching sports, and never ending sentences. I love sharing stories, seeing new places, and trying to better empathize with others.
