About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore NYC, share my couch, share stories.

ABOUT ME

I am 27, love languages, travel, new food, drinks, experiences, and challenges!
I like helping people and rarely ask for help. I like doing just about anything as long as there are friends to share the experience with.
I am afraid of heights, but I love roller coasters.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is connected. Always try to treat others how you wish you want to be treated. Don't be a self-centered dick!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I wanted to get involved sooner and host people in Hiroshima to spread their message of peace and show what an awesome place it is, but my entire apartment was smaller than the room I am sitting in now (which is also not large).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met couch surfers staying with my friend "Fish" and they were always cool, positive people. I want to be a part of that now.
