Hi there, I'm Wes!

I'm one of those guys who worked in finance in New York City and could not reconcile the lifestyle with myself. I quit my job and moved everything to my parents house. I'm exploring the world for right now. I'm a freelance photographer and do some videography when requested.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to connect with other travelers and kindred spirits familiar with the road. Since I solo travel, my days can get lonely. Nothing beats a warm meal and good conversation.
