I was born and raised in Connecticut, but eager to explore different cultures around the US and the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Soon I will be embarking on a yearlong round-the-world adventure. Couch Surfing will provide me the means to experience an area by staying with individuals that know the culture the best.

I enjoy running, cycling, reading, exploring new areas and meeting new people.
