CURRENT MISSION

travel, travel, travel. I want to learn all about cultures and traditions as well as share my own.

ABOUT ME

Im a 6'4 white Latino, I love art and pop culture. I go to bars and clubs once in a while. I enjoy traveling whether its solo or with company. I find myself to be more hipster than homo although my friends describe as a cleancut indie guy. I love hanging out with a good cup of coffee, even better if its french pressed. bike riding, trying out holes in the wall and all things you would imagine a foody would enjoy. Se habla español!

PHILOSOPHY

a couple of my infamous words of wisdom I use are: Keep it simple stupid, and touch it once.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have facebook, myspace and a blog. check em out. In case you are in LA and want to hang out, hit me up. Im in the know of some really great spots that aren't too much in the scene and are perfect for good ol' Los Angeles memories.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was in a student exchange program at age 16 and got to travel to Japan for a month and stay with 4 host families. I really got to know the family as a unit and got to see many of the Japanese customs in day to day life.

Interests

love trying new things. my idea of a good time is hanging out with friends or even having some alone time to read a mag and muse. I like indie films and music. I like California and enjoy traveling around the world. I try to get out of the country once a year at least, just to get a better understanding on how the world works elsewhere.. I like having my summer hikes with my friends and coworkers. I think I'm probably the one person amongst my friends that will not get angry receiving a phone call at 4am to just talk. I love art and enjoy museums.
