Former Californian, current New Yorker! After two years of traveling I settled down in Brooklyn.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I traveled around North America for four months in 2024, and Couchsurfing connected me with people who have changed my life for the better.
I hope I can leave the same impact on others!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, but My Chemical Romance will always be my favorite band of all time. I saw them twice in Brazil in 2026! 😄
I'm a horror movie enthusiast; my favorite movie of all time is The Shining.
My favorite book is Infinite Jest– I’ve spoken at the International David Foster Wallace conference in Austin, TX, and I’ll be speaking on an Infinite Jest panel at the American Literature Association for the novel’s 30th anniversary.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hiked Laguna 69 in Ancash, Peru, the most intense hike I’ve ever done

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a total movie and music nerd, and would love to exchange recommendations.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Although I'm not the best chef, I would be happy to make dinners for my hosts. I can definitely lend a hand around the house!
