About Me

CURRENT MISSION

O to have life henceforth a poem of new joys!

ABOUT ME

Just like to have a good time with good people. My favorite nights are those when I meet someone new and something unexpected happens.

Will try just about anything (almost) once. Love to party and have an adventure, but just as often love to just relax, hang out, chill. Opinionated and love to discuss politics, culture, etc, but only because I love to have my opinion changed.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I travel a lot with work, but love to meet new people and chill in the A when I'm around. Also like to meet people (either surfing or just a drink or whatever) when I'm traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CouchSurfed for the first time after I graduated from college on a trip around the world. Went to: the Philippines, Tokyo, Seoul, Melbourne, Amsterdam, Istanbul, Athens, Mykonos, Budapest, Prague, Tallinn, Copenhagen, Paris, London.

It was so incredible, I decided to keep doing it. Funny how that works.

Interests

You! No but really, love meeting new people and hearing their stories.

Traveling obviously, solving the world's problems over a beer.
