Hey! I'm Chris and I am from an island in the Caribbean called Bonaire! If that doesn't ring a bell then maybe you've heard of Curacao or Aruba?! It is a small island and is known for it's pristine underwater life and well preserved nature. We speak four languages English, Spanish, Dutch and the local language Papiamentu.

I love travelling and have been travelling ever since I can remember. I enjoy meeting people locally whenever I am travelling and learn about the culture and language and learning about the non-touristy spots to hit!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've tried Airbnb before and loved getting the chance to live in a more 'natural' environment compared to resorts and hotels. I've never tried couchsurfing before untul now, but I am really curious to find out how it works. I hope to get to meet local people to places I go, which is something you rarely experience if you go to hotels for example.

I want to feel like I'm actually living at the countries I visit. :)

Interests

I have diverse taste and I try to do new things whenever I can, recently I've taken up salsa classes and completed my open water diving course. I believe if you're not learning or doing something new then you're not living.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, if it's good it's good, it can be anything from radio pop to hip hop to jazz and all the way to salsa! Favorite movies are comedies, drama and action.
