Hi! I work in HR at a large accounting firm and live in a 1 bedroom in Harlem and would love to host and hang out to the extent my schedule permits. I've had some amazing times in my life from couchsurfing, unforgettable memories and lifelong friends, and would like to get some adventures going in my life again!

In the process of planning my annual big CS backpacking trip for March 2026. Deciding between Greece, Turkey, Poland, Uzbekistan, or going back to India and seeing the South. Maybe I'll get some great layovers too.

My ideal next trips are to all of Eastern Europe, Central Asia (-stans), and maybe revisit Japan, Italy, India, and check out Greece, Turkey, and South Africa too. The Caucasus states also intrigue me. I would also like to see more of the Middle East and Israel as well as Palestine. I'd like to see Ethiopia and Somaliland. I just went to India and had the most amazing time, truly thanks to my amazing hosts on Couchsurfing.

Mexico has a special place in my heart as I lived there, learned more Spanish, and was very connected to the CS community. It is my second country and home; I had an unforgettable experience thanks to CS.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have had really fabulous experiences from CS! I have gotten to do wonderful things and connect with people the way you can't with a commercial guide. I have made lifelong friends and really deep meaningful relationships as well as great adventures and lots of laughs. I hope to keep it up and continue connecting!

Interests

I enjoy libraries, cooking, bicycling, jogging (when the weather is nice), walk and talks, cats, all sorts of animals, and just chatting spending time with friends! I am always up for new experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing the kindness and open hearts of everyone I've met in Couchsurfing has really warmed me! To be honest, it keeps the faith in a way, defeating the stereotype of the uncaring, disconnected stranger.

Teach, Learn, Share

I hope that I can teach you things about myself and my world and life experiences, and that you can do the same! The human connection across cultures and worlds in CS is amazing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good conversation, 3 friendly cats, and eagerness to exchange!
