About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel and explore this world...!!

ABOUT ME

I'm engineer, runner and traveler. I'm from Perú and I've traveled since I was 19 years old.

I love travel and running and try to combine both always when it's possible... I like to explore new places and meet new people, I want to learn more about differente cultures and other point of views of the world...

PHILOSOPHY

The most important things I've learned been talking with people and traveling.. Share your experiences with others, each one of us is the sum of all our experiences and people we've met!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been in some CS' meetings on Fridays, the LimaBabel meeting and little trips with other CSers around Peru.

I've been hosted in Madrid by Ana Calzada at the begining of my trip around Europe.
I've hanged out with some other peruvian and not-peruvian CSers in Lima and other places around Peru.

In 2013 I travelled to USA to visit my sister in Oklahoma University, we travelled together we spent my birthday in New York City and I traveled to Russia to meet my friends

In 2015 I travelled to Orlando, FL. to run the Half Marathon of Disney in Disney World and I met new friends there whose with walk around the city and enjoyed it!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I was really good in math and science in High School and University so I could explain some interesting aspects about that.
Also I have a lot of experience in Project Management and Technology Management, we could talk about current IT development 😉👍🏼

and according I'm an Apple devices user, if you have any question about them, just ask me :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I could share my experiences of my travels, around my country: PERU, around South america and Europe (I was there twice) ... also, it's a custom for me to bring two presents from Peru to my host: a bottle of Pisco (the national drink of Peru) and a handicraft or an original souvenir from here.

I hope you appreciate them :)
