A native New Yorker, who is perhaps happiest when venturing out of the city to new places.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Signed up ages ago, but never actively participated. In my travels, particularly in the past year, I've gotten to meet and know some members of the community--travelers and locals alike--and it's renewed my interest. Unfortunately, I don't have the space to host at the moment but am always down for a meetup.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Not sure that I've ever done anything truly amazing, but I try to face/do things that scare me. I have some pretty irrational fears--reclining Buddhas, for one--and some less irrational ones--e.g., water--and every time I seek out and stare down a creepy statue or go kayaking/sailing or hop on a motorbike, which I have a knack for falling off of, face-first, it feels pretty damn exhilarating.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

At any given time, I am attempting to learn either a language or an instrument, or both--currently, it's German and the ukelele.

Länder, in denen ich gelebt habe
