I recently graduated from Skidmore College (Upstate NY) with an Economics degree. I studied Russian for a year and a half while in college and am traveling through Russia to improve my language skills and meet plenty of new people along the way. I am new to couchsurfing but I am a curious traveler who is open to trying new things (especially new foods), seeing new places and of course meeting great people along the way!

Почему я на Couchsurfing
I'm on couchsurfing to meet new people from all over the world who I otherwise would not have gotten the chance to meet if I had stayed in a hotel.
Музыка, кино и книги
DIIV, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Grateful Dead, Freddie Gibbs, Kodak Black, The Dandy Warhols, Mall Grab, DJ Boring, a lot of obscure techno and psychedelic rock
Учить, учиться, делиться
I try to approach every new encounter with the mentality that there is no one right way to do things, so I love learning about other people's cultures and seeing how they do things differently, not better, not worse, just different. If you are interested, I can share some of my American culture with you whether that be music, movies, cooking and food, sports or even English language. It seems a lot of people on couchsurfing are looking to improve their language skills, so I'd be happy to help with that. Of course, I am also happy to try to teach guitar and bass too.
Что я могу предложить хостам
Cultural exchange; show me a good, cheap place to eat and I will buy your dinner, the least I can for you opening up your home to me, also willing to cook an American dish if you want :)
Мои интересы
When I have free time, I love to play music (guitar and bass mainly) with friends - I have been in two bands in the past few years. I am constantly listening to new music and finding new bands (thanks Spotify) too. I'd love to play music or listen to some new music with you. I also like sports, hockey is my favorite. I played with my three brothers since I was little and still love to play. I also watch the NHL, my favorite team is the Pittsburgh Penguins. I am also big into skiing, although I don't ski as much as I'd like to because it takes a lot of time and I don't live close to many good mountains. Of course I also like soccer (football) and mainly watch Premier League, Liverpool.
