ABOUT ME

Ahoy! I've been living in New York City for two years now. I play many instruments, write and listen to lots of music, and enjoy eating great food and having drinks with friends, old and new. I went WWOOFing and HELPX-ing in Italy and Spain in 2009 by working on farms and swung through Denmark, Germany, and France in 2011. I enjoy going to clubs, dive bars, and house parties, hearing people's stories, playing music with people, telling stories, making new stories, you get the gist! Looking for a great time in Spain 2013!

PHILOSOPHY

Find the humor in things!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like to host people when I can and show them around New York I last hosted Joachim in D.C. when I was living there, who's traveling around the U.S. of A. We had a righteous time. Update: hosted Pierre in New York and had a great time!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed with Pierre in Paris for a week. Awesome time!
