I'm an explorer and nature lover discovering constantly the many wonders this planet provides us. I was born in the U.S. from a Nicaraguan mother and French father. I lived in Sweden for a year while doing my Master's degree and then in Madrid for 6 months. Came back to Costa Rica early 2017 and I am currently growing and learning from each experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I set a goal of getting to see all that I could (and then a little bit more) of the world. I'm very outgoing and love learning about near cultures and the way humans work. I'm constantly being surprised by the kindness of people wherever I go and I think Couchsurfing is another way of understanding the culture of a country by being hosted by a local who hopefully also gives good recommendations of places only locals really get to see :) I try to travel as cheap as I can so the fact that Couchsurfing is free is also obviously a plus :)
