About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to make friends from all over the world. Two things that bring me a lot of pleasure in life are meeting new people (especially cute guys) and being a good host, so those things are what I hope to get out of this website..

ABOUT ME

I am from the San Francisco Bay Area, currently living just south of Santa Cruz. I recently lived in Florence, Italy for a year. It is one of the Europe's greatest little cities. I think that the Tuscan lifestyle that I was lucky enough to experience for a while is truly something special. I enjoyed my time in Florence immensely and will no doubt return someday. California is an amazing place also, so I can't complain too much about my whereabouts nowadays. Unfortunately, I am not able to host couchsurfers currently. I hosted a few times during my days in Italy and always had good experiences. Someday, I hope to have a job that allows me to travel often and see a lot more places.

PHILOSOPHY

Epicurean.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I had a pretty sweet couch in Florence and I shared it with a few good guys. I couchsurfed in Spain in Barcelona and Madrid, and also in England in the city of Nottingham. I can no longer offer my couch to guests at this time, but I am hoping some good couchsurfing karma will allow me to stay on the couches of a few others during this next year.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Several times in Spain and England, all good experiences.

Interests

Nothing too exciting. I love (in no particular order): to travel, to read, to watch films, to go out to bars and restaurants, to dance until my legs hurt, to go to the beach, to eat good food and drink good drinks, to cook, to have dinner parties, and to laugh. I also enjoy keeping myself fit and trying to live a healthy lifestyle.
