CURRENT MISSION

To never forget my keys

ABOUT ME

I love exploring cities, finding concerts, and small art galleries, making things, etc. I'm currently a student at North Bennet Street School in Boston's North End, doing a two-year Cabinet and Furniture Making program.

PHILOSOPHY

This is hard. I guess I don't know how to verbalize how I live.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've traveled through the US a few times staying with CouchSurfers and all the experiences were great!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The first time I Couchsurfed was in Portland. It was great! Things got exciting when we got locked out of the apartment and I had to do some stealthy acrobatics to get our stuff and make it to the train in time. Don't worry I won't climb through your windows.

Since then I've stayed with some great folks in Pittsburgh, DC, Asheville, and Poughkeepsie and all were wonderful experiences. I now know much more about those cities than I ever expected to.

Interests

Photography, architecture, woodworking, growing food, art, music, concerts, reading, wandering, traveling, piano, guitar, finding weird things, biking, trying to cook (usually failing), learning instruments: currently banjo and mandolin.
