About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am an American national living in the middle east and studying international relations in Switzerland. I enjoy history, art, and music. I prize good conversation and a full night.

PHILOSOPHY

I wont ever hurt you, please do the same. I believe in generosity over reciprocation. I am pro-digital, pro-globalization, anti-huntington.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I cannot host for now but I travel and happily share a coffee with anyone traveling in Ticino.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surf a few times a year and guide for people in Lugano and Ticino when I can.
Whenever I surf I do the most I can for the least I can. I like live music but mostly just being off the path.

Interests

Good music before anything else. Good music, good company, wine. I like to stay busy during the day and go out at night, but will always choose the latter.
