Discover a world without boundaries. Embrace every countries cultural identities, and meet the REAL locals. And maybe play a few shows while I'm at it!

ABOUT ME

There is so much more to life when you use your creativity and imagination! I try to live by this and spread spontaneity wherever I go.

If you stay with me, there's a pretty good chance I'll want to go out at least one night with you - I think I really enjoy getting to know my couch surfers and enjoy hosting both the deep thinking and the fun loving (if you are both, you are probably amazing and you should send me a message if you need a couch)

I love to laugh, I love to listen, I love music, I love film! I've learned in recent years that it's a better day when you just relax and let go of your inhibitions and fears and enjoy where you are and whoever you're there with. I try to embrace my free spirit, and I try to surround myself with people who embrace the path less traveled.

Inspire me and I will try to do the same for you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been happily returning the favors for my couchsurfing friends from around the world. Since I've been moving around a bit recently, I'm mostly spreading the word to travelers far and wide.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Lots and lots of couchsurfing around Europe in Summer 2008. A few randoms in between then and now. And more recently I've hosted a bunch of great people - some are even old friends from my travels!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At my graduation, held at Yankee Stadium before 20,000 people, I hopped the wall and ran across the outfield in my purple robe. They were singing Sinatra's "New York, New York" when I decided to go for it. The whole place went wild! I tried to head to home plate to slide in, but was tackled by the police only 10 feet away from it. I will never regret that day.

Teach, Learn, Share

Be respectful to those giving you a home. It's out of the kindness in their hearts that they host you, and the fact that there's still that sort of kindness in such a messed up world is quite a miracle!
