CURRENT MISSION

In search of the world's best coffee. Only kind of joking.

ABOUT ME

I love hearing people's stories and knowing what motivates them. I like deep conversation and I'm not afraid to ask hard personal questions the first time we meet.

In my travels, I seek new experiences, memorable interactions, and novel tastes. I live a fairly healthy lifestyle. I eat well, I'm not a heavy drinker and I exercise nearly every day. That said, I love dancing and music so I'm always up for a night out.

Personality-wise, I'm inquisitive, honest and I smile a lot. I love to read, write and take pictures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's more fun to get to know locals! Hablo español bastante bien entonces ay que aprovechar para conocer Latinoamérica más íntimamente.

I'm currently on a solo six-month backpacking trip throughout South America. I created this account years ago and never touched it again. A few months into my trip, I realized time slips away before you realize it so I'd better get on it. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent three days trekking through the deep Bolivian jungle, chasing wildlife with a guide who had an infectious passion for the jungle.

We came across nearly thirty distinct flora and fauna. We spotted spider monkeys, wild pigs and a tapir, among many others.

Physically, it was the most challenging trek of my life, but also the most rewarding. We were deep in the jungle and didn't see another sign of human beings for three full days.

I'd do it again in an instant!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Intimate details about how the iPhone works.

Seriously, I'd love to share stories about my travels, life in San Francisco, or working in the technology industry (what I call the "New Hollywood").

I'm happy to cook for hosts or invite out to a nice restaurant.
