Space enthusiast, outdoors lover, and big fan of life. Trying my best to see new places and meet new people. I grew up in Albuquerque, NM which has a rich history of Spanish and Native American culture, then moved up to Boulder, CO for school where I learned what it means to get lost in the mountains on a backcountry trip and sleep outside in the snow - love it.

Favorite pizza: Green chile and ham
Coolest constellation: Orion (although I'm a Gemini)
Favorite quote: "Viele kleine Leute, die in vielen kleinen Orten viele kleine Dinge tun, verändern können Gesicht der Welt." (Many small people, in many small places, doing many small things, can alter the face of the world). From Graffiti on the Berlin Wall when it was being torn down.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

It's a community with some awesome people from amazing places. The feel of hosting someone and showing them your area is intrinsically rewarding, and being able to go somewhere else and have someone else return the favor is incredible.

Intereses

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Ever wonder how many people are in space right now?

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I'm energetic and curious. I love listening to other people's stories and can entertain you with corny space jokes. I have an amazing family recipe for green chile chicken enchiladas which I'm more than happy to share.
