CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy all the lovely things that my new home of Colorado has to offer!

ABOUT ME

I am a small town boy from NJ-- when it came time for me to go to university, I decided it was time I got out of my comfort zone and gain some new experiences. I chose to go to Montreal to study and it was one of the best decisions that I have ever made. Since then, I have completed my undergrad in Spanish language, History and International development. I studied and lived in Mexico (DF) and Ecuador, and am now working as a Special Education Teacher in Denver, CO.

PHILOSOPHY

life's short, do what you love!

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm an outgoing guy that will try (almost) anything once. I want to get out of my comfort zone, meet new people and experience something other than the life I grew up living.

Currently looking for travelers to host!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I spent a month couchsurfing around Spain in July of 2012, what an experience.

I used CS a bunch when I was living in Mexico, and now I am living in Denver and looking to meet up with people-- our house is not quite set up yet, so for now I am mostly looking for meetups in the Denver area, but I will be hosting travelers soon!
