What's up! I am at that point where I want to be adventurous and travel a bit. A travel goal is to run marathons/ultras and trek mountains everywhere.

Upcoming runs: Philadelphia Marathon

Runs so far:
USA (MD, DC, VA, DE, NJ, NY, HI)
Greece (Athens)
Japan (Okinawa)
Morocco (Essaouira)

Mountain Treks:
Mount Toubkal
Mauna Kea
Everest Base Camp

Other things on my radar...
Ironman Triathlon
Appalachian Trail Thru-Hike (once I retire or I'm out of a job????)

Let's dance (I'm a SALSA addict) or go for an adventure :DD

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I became hooked to CS ever since I met up with the DC CS community. Their travel stories are my motivation to always seek out adventure and travel whenever possible. Besides traveling, I enjoy organizing events for the local CS community (DC: Couch Crashes, Hikes, Camping Trips, Potluck Dinners).

Now that I'm in the NJ/NY area I'd like to contribute again :DD

Teach, Learn, Share

I've taken up Salsa dancing (June 2018) and it would be my pleasure to teach some moves!

I have ONE magic card trick that I can teach you -- it'll get the crowd going!

If you're interested in fitness/health I could share what I've learned from marathons and triathlons.
