Hello! I live in NYC but travel the globe for work and pleasure, 27 countries in 2014 (here's a quick summary: http://imgur.com/a/iFlFH), and 26 in 2015.

When I'm not traveling, I love showing NYC to others, meeting folks from all walks of life. Favorite part of travel is that first 12 hours in a new city when you get your feet on the pavement, and making lasting meaningful social connections.

In NYC and want to chat, hangout, or need lodging -- let me know!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Love meeting new people from various cultures and backgrounds, and showing them NYC! I travel about 75% of the time, so hope to meet locals in the places where I travel as well.

Interests

Adventures sports (snowboarding, hiking, surfing, wind surfing, etc), comedy, outdoor eating/drinking/playing, fantastic food, local drinking games, sharing travel tales.
