Hello all, my name is Alejandro, and I am excited about the potential to meet and explore the world with you all!

I am from San Jose, California, the heart of Silicon Valley (about an hour south of San Francisco). I received my Bachelor's Degree in Economics from San Jose State University. I participated in an Exchange Semester in Australia my last year of University and fell in love with traveling (it was my first time away from the Americas, living out on my own).

In the summer of 2019, I traveled through Europe for 2 months and got to visit many of the friends I made in Australia, and make plenty of new ones too!

I enjoy exploring and adventuring nature, cultural sites, and especially food!
I am an ESTP and can spend hours making conversation 😁

I have a huge love for animals and pets, so if you have any of those I'll be in heaven!

My motto is I'll try anything once, and if I don't like it, I'll probably try it again to make sure.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing to make connections around the world. I live vicariously through people and enjoy showing others my hometown and the San Francisco Bay Area. It is my hope we can trade life experiences and adventures.
