Not super active on couchsurfing, but happy to share my profiles / reviews from other sites to verify I’m not a bot or a creeper :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love staying / exploring the local side of new places. Sitting in neighborhood parks, going to the gym, walking, taking public transit, shopping at the supermarket — experiencing community life, not just hotel districts and museums.

DC based, but in NYC regularly and traveling internationally about once a month. Hope to be in your city soon.

I love swapping stories and learning about you and your life and adventures.
