Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Finally taking others' advice and making time to travel (better late than never!)
ABOUT ME
I'm laid back and enjoy meeting new people. I'm relishing the start of my 4th year in New York City and continue to love it, even though I still can't afford it! I recently moved to Williamsburg, Brooklyn because I like things at a little slower pace than Manhattan. I love live music, contemporary art, a good wine night, and internet memes.
PHILOSOPHY
I live for genuine relationships with genuine people who I can learn from.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm a couchsurfers novice, but have heard amazing things about it from traveling friends. I'm looking forward to both surfing and hosting!
Interests
I like exploring and discovering new music and seeing live shows in Brooklyn & Manhattan. I love all the museums and galleries NYC has to offer - especially contemporary art. I work at an interactive web design company and am interested in the digital world and simple graphic design. I'm an aspiring foodie and enjoy finding new taste combinations in both food and drink.
