CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm currently living in Brooklyn, city of dreams. I make radio and film documentaries, write essays, work, cook, play, run, wash, rinse, repeat.

PHILOSOPHY

"Your heart is a muscle the size of your fist. Keep loving. Keep fighting."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to meet people, to help out if I can, and to make you laugh.

I've slept on sofas and floors, hosted CouchSurfers, and met people for coffee and wine.
