Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING: I've met so many amazing people in my travels, and would love to see where I can help. I love meeting travelers from all over the world. I'd love to hear about your crazy adventures. Let me know when your adventures take you to NYC, and let's explore together! I usually can't offer lodging these days, but I'd be happy to show you around when I can, and meet my friends in some of my favorite places.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Taking a half-year trip around the world, through 15 countries. That adventure included going swimming in shark-infested waters, hiking up a volcano, surrounded by monkeys, floating in the Dead Sea, snorkeling with massive whale sharks, being arms-length from orangutans, seeing baby elephants in the wild, and more!
What I Can Share With Hosts
great conversations, stories from my crazy travel adventures around the world, and hopefully some laughs
