ABOUT ME

Moving to New Brunswick, New Jersey (holla) starting in August. Traveling this summer, see you in Europe or Asia I hope!

I like the following things: culture (high and low alike), going out to see the sights, staying in with a book or a movie, outdoors in moderation, animals, H&M and Trader Joe's, reading BBC and the Economist as well as semi-trashy gossip blogs, mojitos, learning foreign languages, trying to cook new things, sleeping in on the weekend, resolving problems or just avoiding them if I can get away with it, irony and wit, smiling at babies, good grammar and a healthy vocabulary, etc etc

I am gay. I don't care if you are or not, but obviously you should be cool with me at the least.

PHILOSOPHY

Life should be interesting...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with a guy I met in Brazil for about a month. I'd like to return the favor albeit for a much shorter amount of time.
