About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Push it to the limit!

ABOUT ME

I cannot get enough of a drug called Life. I feed off of everything it has to offer...new experiences, new places, new faces...all new thrills to me!!! I definitely live by the motto "Go big or go home!" I put 110% into anything and everything I do...and that includes anything from work to competitions to having a great time!!!!...did I mention I like to party? I absolutely love it. I love to dance and I get my fix every weekend...salsa, merengue, vallenato, bachata, hip hop, reggae...you name it!!! I play as hard as I work. I enjoy the outdoors and try to get out as much as possible.
Cliff notes about me: A SOCIAL ANIMAL THAT LOVES LIFE!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a compilation of memories and experiences that ultimately mold a person into what they are and how they view/accept others. I live my life to the absolute max because I want to create memories and experience most things under the sun...I don't want to wake up when I'm 80 yrs old (if I make it :P) and feel like I didn't do anything with my life...something I fear more than death itself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It would be my pleasure to host any well-mannered individuals who would enjoy having a high-energy host. I will do my best to show you a great time wherever I may be living at the moment. I want to learn something new from each person that I meet through the CS Project...as well as teach anything that I know that may be of interest to someone else (spanish, spanglish, jiu jitsu, dance, etc?)

Interests

EVERYTHING except country music, drugs, and about 70% of things considered illegal

  • animals
  • dancing
  • bachata
  • partying
  • cars
  • music
  • country music
  • outdoor activities
  • jiu jitsu

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've witnessed birth...not my child...but that was pretty damn amazing.
To all the Moms out there: my respects.

Caught a cab back home...at 6AM (LONG night, not very sober :P)...on my first night in China...no map...no phone numbers...no idea where I was...I don't know Chinese :) ...I arrived at my destination and realized I didn't have any money...SO I proceeded to negotiate with the cab driver who knew zero english. All in all, it cost me a few smiles and friendly handshakes :) I was relieved to open my eyes and find myself staring at my ceiling the next morning :)

Teach, Learn, Share

What can I teach you?
Well, here's a list of some things I like to do:
- Gear head: love to work on cars
- Jiu jitsu: one of my passions
- Did I mention dance? (I know salsa, merengue, etc..most latin dances)
- Spanish: fluent speaker...I'm Colombian :)

Countries I’ve Visited
