CURRENT MISSION

How each country does their version of french fries is a good barometer of how much I'll enjoy said country :)

ABOUT ME

NYC by birth, but with the wilderness in my soul. A silver lined heart, exploring and discovering with and without a backpack- but the secret is that it's not about the places you go but the people you meet along the way. I love stories and strangers that become friends for life -connecting through humanity- it's up to us to spread that connection to the best of our ability.

I'm thusly sorting myself out and figuring the particulars of life and looking for a community that's doing the same. Growth is paramount and an ongoing process; patience and loyalty are a virtue. Kindness and nobility because we're all meeting mother earth one day.

Some other things I love in no particular order: Aisle seats. Good advice. Deep connections. Corny jokes. Absurdity. Happy accidents. Non-fiction forever and always. The inherent goodness in people at a fundamental level. The smell of salt water, and moreso, a burning campfire in the woods. And oddly, online-banking.

PHILOSOPHY

There are many great and terrible things I still want to do in this short time we have here. Don't waste time.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've only ever had fantastic experiences with the CS community, and having now done it firsthand being a surfer around the US, I can lend my voice to say that it is indeed one of the most unique opportunities out there to travel and meet amazingly kind individuals that are warm and inviting, while connecting and learning about others.

A true thank you from the bottom of my heart to all those surfers and hosts who make this place safe, reliable, and life-changing!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Worked in corporate right out of college. Quit a couple years ago to travel the world. Came back, had a bit of a delayed quarter-life crisis, sobered up, and now work for myself.

教，学，和分享

I'm fairly resourceful and a go-getter when it comes to the arts and things that have to do with design. If it can be dreamt up, I can make it happen.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Hopefully, I can share my stories and experiences with the hosts that I stay with, and the surfers that stay with me. This community has allowed me to meet fellow like-minded folk who believe in opening doors to strangers who then become friends for life, I hope to pass that sense of belonging along to all those whose life I pass through and those that pass through mine. Always love.
