I live in San Francisco and I'm currently on a work sabbatical and traveling around Europe with my bicycle. I was recently in Northern Italy for 2 weeks cycling around the Italian Alps.

I enjoy talking to new people, laughing with others and at myself. I enjoy studying Italian, I loved living Asia and autumn is my favorite season

PHILOSOPHY

"Your choices are half chance, and so are everybody else's."

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have "surfed" in Connecticut (New Haven), South Carolina (Columbia), Indiana (Evansville) and Minnesota (Minneapolis). My very first CS experience was in Batam, Indonesia and it was great. I have met so many great people on this platform!

Intereses

Constantly trying to push the bounds of my comfort zone. The more I do this, the more I realize I do not have a specific comfort zone and it is amazing. I think that too many people live in a bubble and are unwilling to try new things, meet new people and travel to new places.
