I'm traveling for a couple months around Europe. This is my first solo trip and would love to connect with some cool likeminded people. I've only hosted before on couch surfing in the past and I had great experiences...hoping to find the same on the other side. I'm very interested in art and music, love going to parties or house shows. You can find me in the woods or in my studio making things.

I am very flexible and not picky, would be happy to hang or do my own thing. Very clean and respectful.

I graduated from Pratt Institute (Brooklyn, New York) in 2014 with a BFA in Photography and a minor in Art History. I have been working as a photographer and as an artist assistant since.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It makes so much sense to connect with people around the world to have a mutually beneficial experience. I obviously want to save money while I'm traveling, but I am more than happy to contribute in anyway that I can whether financially or otherwise. Would be a dream to find musicians and artists to play/collaborate with while I'm traveling.

When I lived in New York City we had people from all over the world coming to stay with us on couchsurfing. I had such a positive experience as a host that I thought I would give it a try.

Interests

Have always loved the outdoors and felt inspired by our relationship with nature. I love to make all kinds of art and have a passion for music. Thoroughly enjoy those late night deep conversations... love talking philosophy, physics, films, politics, art history...you name it. Always wanted to be an inventor and keep a journal of all my ideas.
