About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finish my contract and leave the East coast of North America.

ABOUT ME

I am researching, and passionate about, solar energy. I am laid back and like to have interesting conversations, hear about people's lives and goof around.

PHILOSOPHY

Go do it, because you don´t know when you will get another chance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I´ve gone to a few couch surfing events in different cities to meet people. I have been able to surf a bit in Latin America and also in the US.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Everyone I´ve met has been great and all my hosts ave been very helpful getting me situated in a new city or town. Had a couple hosts fall through last minute which was a bit of a challenge.

Interests

I love sports, listening to music, exploring nature, cooking with people and learning new things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I loved sky diving and white water kayaking. Also I got to go sledding down the side of el Volcan Lanin which was so cool!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can do a bit of cooking but would love to learn more. I'm learning to bake bread and I love practicing languages with people.

Always happy to grab a drink or a meal, go around town, check out a show or a place I haven't been to.
