ABOUT ME

If you were to ask friends and family who are close to me to describe me in 3 words, they would say...Laid back, friendly, and polite. I know because I've asked. I'm 26 and have lived in NY/CT area my whole life, and have barely left it aside from a trip or two to florida. I'd like to see a few select cities in the US and would love to do it with someone native to the area. I dont like the whole tourist feel when I've traveled but when Ive gone to see friends who have lived in the area it was great.

Although I work in the fitness industry, a good time to me usually doesn't require much strenuous activity. River rafting, jumping off airplanes and any other sorts of high risk activities dont go over well with me. My idea of a good time is site seeing a Metropolitan area, attending sporting events, city night life and adversely sight seeing parks, beaches and any historical landmarks.

I'm witty and comical in spurts (I think). Love to crack jokes (sometimes inappropriate). I'm always honest and respectful of someone's home and time.

PHILOSOPHY

I am an introspective person. I don't usually react on initial feelings and like to rely on critical thinking. However, I am definately an in-the-moment type of person. I can open up very quickly or stay reserved depneding on circumstances and the company I'm with.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not sure about what to say for this one. I'm going to assume its addressing what I'm here for. One day I'd love to host but for now I am only looking to surf. Particularly in August of 2012. I am planning a large scale trip to visit Southern California and Chicago.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The only thing truly amazing in my life was raising a child for the first 4 years of their life. Seeing the growth of the human mind is an amazing thing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Putting me on the spot, hmm... I can answer anything on the topic of systems physiology (how the body works and responds to a physical stimulus). Back problems? Chronic Knee pain? I got you, I know what its like. Those are my practical skills.
