I am Abelardo and I am El Salvador. I love to go hiking and spend more of my time in the outdoors. I have traveled across 5 continents, surfed in Canada, enjoy some Coca Tea in Peru and party 5 days straight, got wasted in Chinese Wedding with Maotai (aka that is some expensive stuff), and more. I like living life as simple as possible, just going with the flow. I have hitchhike from Seattle to Canada, and got the pleasure to make a lot of friends. When I am not traveling, I enjoy practicing Ving Tsun. I enjoy the family portion of it, where older brother/sister student, i.e Sihing, help the younger brother/sister student i.e Sidai. It has help me ground my life and become a better person. My tradition is to travel every birthday, may that be Mexico, Chile or Europe, I hope to meet you too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The fastest way to travel is by hosting people from around the world in your house. It offers the world culture that travel to you. I feel like everyone should travel at least once in their life. To have an experience the world through the eyes of the local once can learn the culture and party. Life is too short to not party with a stranger from the other side of the ocean.
