ABOUT ME

Renee and I met in Los Angeles, CA. We both wanted to explore South America and here we are now! We are amidst a 5-month long journey through Colombia-Ecuador-Peru-Chile-Argentina, maybe Brazil and/or Bolivia.

PHILOSOPHY

The foot feels the foot when it feels the ground.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed a lot of couches, but mainly with close friends. Met a lot of 'Surfers' in hostels all over the world and tagged-along on a couple of 'coffee dates'.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Haven't been as active on CouchSurfing as I wanted to be through my travels. I love the idea, but my trip planning is usually very last minute. Giving it a go in South America.
