I was adopted when I was 11 years old. My parents have raised over 60 kids through adoption, foster care and respite. Due to their abundant and golden hearts, I've become a great guy with a big heart. My mom introduced me travel taking me all around the United States and theatre. These are two of my great passions. I found dancing myself and trained as a modern dancer for many years. I have actually performed more as an Argentine Tango dancer.

When all that I have done is added up I'm clearly a rebel adventurer. I love new experiences that are outside the norm or I love making norm more interesting whether that is creating art work/performances or protesting to make positive changes in the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing because my husband is a flight attendant. I get to travel some. It would be nice to meet people and make friends in other cities. We also love the idea of hosting other travelers. When you have an extra bed/room, why not share it? Also, I thinkit is important to meet other people from places outside of our origins; the more connections from nation to nation a people have the better the world becomes.

On more than one occasion, I have done clowning for charity and non-profits. It gives me joy to serve others.

I love tango. My husband, Anton is a world renowned tango historian and performer. We are also dancers and teachers of dancing. We love to share our passion for movement. We also know great places to go and dance.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My husband and I just bought our first home. It is 110 years old, and we are currently restoring it. It is a classic Craftsman. We love touring people around NYC and Newark, NJ. There are so many incredible things to see and do. We are members at most of the museums in NYC and NJ, so we can certainly take you along.
