About Me

I have lived both in the United States and in Europe, and presently call California home, despite traveling since Autumn 2018 to explore North America by car.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a writer, blogger, photographer, amateur artist, and policy maker. I love travel, meeting new people, and discussing ideas and philosophies. I have been in California for more than 20 years, but have been traveling by car around the US since Autumn 2018. I previously experienced couchsurfing through an architect super host friend in Harlem, NYC who hosted fellow artists from around the world. I met some beautiful people from China, Austria, France, and Germany, through my friend's generosity who had a uniquely Afro-American male perspective to share with our foreign guests. I hope to continue to serve as an amateur ambassador myself.
