CURRENT MISSION

Summer Adventure 2011: Israel, Hungary, Croatia, Slovenia, Austria, Czech Republic, & Poland!

ABOUT ME

What's happening CS fam!?

I'm an avid beatboxer (mouthmatics.com) And also just finished my MBA at NYU Stern where I specialized in entrepreneurship, and social innovation and impact. As I don't start work until September 2011, I am taking one more 3-month international globetrot before diving back into the real world! I'll be working at Deloitte Consulting in their Sustainability & Climate Change team, helping companies decrease their carbon footprints and becoming better overall corporate citizens.

I love international travel, meeting new people from different cultures, live music, the great outdoors, and anything involving adrenaline!

PHILOSOPHY

Summed up in my two favorite quotes:

"Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends."
- Maya Angelou

"Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorius triumphs, even though checkered by failure... than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat."
- Teddy Roosevelt

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When in NYC, I am happy to host good, honest, and considerate travelers on my couch and Aero bed. While traveling, I hope to be able to meet people from all over the world and get a local introduction to their cities. This summer, I am traveling to Hungary, Croatia, Slovenia, Poland, Austria, Czech Republic...tips are much appreciated!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I just started surfing this current trip- have met some amazing hosts in Hungary, Austria and Poland so far. Find its great to get a local perspective of the cities and form a connection between just going out and getting shitfaced at a bar...
