I’m an artist and architectural designer raised in an Ecuadorian household in the suburbs of New York (así que hablo español también).

I’ve had many opportunities to live and work around NY and Europe over the years and have backpacked extensively throughout my 20’s mostly solo.

Since I started traveling I’ve been able to freelance and support myself through the drawings and designs I would create of every place I visited. Doing so has connected me with people from all around the world blossoming into countless stories and experiences which I fortunately continue and am able to share with others still in New York City and online. ✍🏼

For a more detailed interest of my travel and artwork journey, I share a lot of it on Instagram and on the web:

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

1. I like the social and open mindset of the people I hangout with on here or events I attend.

2. This platform helps stay on a budget from time to time though also offers amazing insight to experience a culture from a hosts or locals perspective which would be harder to come across otherwise.

3. I don’t use CS as a dating app or free hotel. If people graciously accept to host me or hangout, I am happy to share space and time together connecting even from the simplest of conversations. Firmly believe one should be respectful of boundaries between both parties.
