About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn, to grow, to enrich my life with the wonders of this world...be it places, experiences, and/or people

ABOUT ME

I am the least judgemental person that I know, there is no need for it. I should be a friggen monk lol. I am, however, a realist. I will find the positive in any situation. I may look quiet or bored, but I am happy. I love experiencing new things.

PHILOSOPHY

too long to write as of right now and I have yet to come to a definitive mindset. Until I see the world, I cannot create a universal mindset. Regardless, that's a face to face conversation :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I let people crash my place to either meet new people, learn NY culture, or to save some cash. I must put this here because I get 20+ requests a day and sometimes I'm very busy/tired/etc. and do not have the time to nicely decline. So sorry if I do not reply :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The people I have hosted have always been very nice. Diff personalities...shy, respectful, outgoing, fun, quiet, happy. I love it all.
However, it has gotten really out of hand lately because surfers are cancelling literally the day before or the day OF (and sometimes the day after, sigh). If this is your type of personality, don't ask me to host you. You ruin it for myself and other surfers I turn down because I thought I was hosting someone.

Interests

Learning. Learning is probably the most interesting thing one can do outside of experiencing life. I can be happy anywhere. Going out, bars, clubs, meeting people, anything outdoors, anything sports, reading my neurobehavioral and quantum mechanics books lol so bad, thinking, deep conversations, bonfires, trying to learn guitar, stars, road trips (been on 4 solo), enjoying the beauty of a person when they drop their guard, ice cream chocolate

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
