CURRENT MISSION to be Great! ABOUT ME I drink coffee because I like it, not because I need it. Born and raised in NY by a big Albanian family. Grew up in Long Island and Brooklyn USA. I have family all over the tri-state. Growing up visiting them gave me a chance to know all parts of New York. Very laid back and easy going. Nothing is better than laughing and making people laugh. I'm serious about laughing. Sometimes I'm too cool ...for you, not myself. I'm Christian Slater.
Fluent in English
Fluent in Albanian
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Spent time in South Korea and the friends I made there introduced me to Couchsurfing. I'd like to share my city with fellow travelers. If I have the time I will gladly take you out and accompany you on your trip. If I cannot join you, I will lead you in the right direction. I have family and friends in every Borough. They're not locals, they're New York lifers. PS Don't be shy, BE A TOURIST! I'm still learning new things all the time in NY. Tourist are welcomed here. You're in a new land. Make the most of it by exploring and asking questions, and experiencing what is new to you.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Amazing thing I've seen/my Albanian family. I don't have the words.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm able to teach you how to DJ, throw a proper punch, bake a cake, and how to laugh at yourself. Because I will probably be making fun of you the whole time we are together. And I will share with you my home.
What I Can Share With Hosts
A New Yorkers perspective. And I have a car. You can hang out with a New York JERK!
My Interests
Enjoying a coffee with good company and conversation. Being outdoors and breathing fresh air, boxing, eating in over eating out. Jugar baloncesto! Hiking. Spending time in Brooklyn. Music. Mainly dj performance.
