CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Originally from the NYC area...

Chill, down-to-earth, meditative, contemplative, camera-toting, globe-trotting soul inspired by random acts of kindness that I encounter on my journey . . .

PHILOSOPHY

Be cool...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
