ABOUT ME

I am friendly, adventurous, and a huge music lover!

PHILOSOPHY

Oh man. It's actually very simple: live life in the Nosebleed Section. (excellent song by the Hilltop Hoods.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Down to meet up in NYC, Cape Cod, Paris-- wherever I am! Hosting is tricky since I'm living in a dorm, but I've stayed on couches before as well!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met up with some really cool people through couchsurfing- most recently in Montreal at the Co-op sur genereux. They were an incredible group of people who really opened my eyes to a totally different way of experiencing the world. My friends and I also met up with an awesome couple who provided us with breakfast and a walking tour of their neighborhood!
