CURRENT MISSION

I'm interested in traveling to new cities, but not too far from my home. Also I would like a place to stay in any nearby city that bands I like are passing through.

ABOUT ME

I (steve) run this page. Chances are you'll be meeting my roommates Dave and Laura, if you stay here, but the following info pertains to me mainly.

I like to know where my money's going when I use it (i.e. I try to shop locally/ethically). I think big business has too much influence over journalism and politics.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep searching.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I do meet-ups with local cs'ers occasionally ( though the community is not that strong in Albany). I've surfed and would say 4/5 experiences are positive. I'm hoping to start hosting soon.

Interests

Tennis, politics, Harpers magazine, vegetarianism, trying new beers. The universe, horror movies, stand-up comedy, yoga, ultimate frisbee.
I support small business as much as I can. I love going to new cities, especially small cities and just spend a few days there to try to get a feel for it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw cops hold on to a suicidal man by his ankles when he was upside down over a bridge. He didn't struggle as cops lifted him back up to safety; instead he seemed calm and peaceful.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm interested in people's traveling experiences and traveling tips.
