Overview
About Me
Originally from Ohio but I've lived in New York City for over 20 years. In that time I've lived many lives. I love to travel and meet new people. If you happen to make it my city say hi. I'm always looking for new adventures so feel free to invite me along.
As for hosting Im fairly new to this but not opposed to sharing my place, but far from a free hotel. If you're looking to share in good company and interact I'm totally up for sharing my space. If you just need a place to crash and have no time, or genuine interest engaging it's best to continue searching.
I love to meet new people, so be willing to share your time, experiences, and some level of skill or craft that allows us both to share. As a heads up I have roommates so youd more than likely have to share my bed or crash on the floor, although I have floor mats, sheets, and comfortable pillows. Show you've read this part and mention 'wanderlust' somewhere in your message to me. If it's some copy paste generic text I will not even respond. All the best and catch on the next couch.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I feel as though it's a more authentic way to see the world. You make a personal connection and get a better sense of the place you're staying. After years of traveling I want to try my hand at a set of new adventures.
Interests
I'm a huge fan of museums, and other creative endeavors such as dancing, cooking, music concerts, and visiting beaches. I love to share these experiences with others so the more the merrier.
