Hello friends! Here’s the abbreviated story of my life so far: I grew up in the New York City area, went to college in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and worked a few years in finance, traveled a bit, and now back in NYC looking for a job while working on side projects using AI. Ok now digging a bit deeper: On one hand, I love trying new things, but other times I focus on quality over quantity. On one hand I love nature and solitude, but, crazy enough, I tend to live in mega cities (I try to live close to the river or park of the city though!) I will never say no to working out or going on a run/bike ride, and attending cool events around the city (art galleries, live performances, etc.). Apologies to most of you all in advance but I have to say this: I am straight and I not looking for any debauchery.

Warum ich auf Couchsurfing bin
I’m on couchsurfing for the unique, sometimes crazy (in a good way) people here that form a community of caring, curious, interesting, funny, and adventurous travelers and hosts!
Musik, Filme und Bücher
I’ve played piano since I was 6. My recent favorite book is Scattered Minds by Gabor Mate, and my childhood favorite book is The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Six More by Roald Dahl. My favorite movie is Forest Gump (I cried) or Lego Movie 2 (don’t get me wrong, the first one was great as well).
Eine tolle Sache, die ich getan habe
I worked as a bike instructor and delivery biker in NYC . I rode 100 miles on a bike in one day. Explored off the beaten path on a scooter 🛵 in Istanbul, Turkey, Medellin, Colombia, and Antigua, Guatemala.
