About Me

Hi! Thanks for stopping by. I am a scientist at training, grounded on my spirituality (not religious). I have traveled quite a bit within the Americas and love the idea of couch surfing at its chore. Looking for exchanging cultural knowledge. I can provide a safe and friendly place to stay and rest, shower, kitchen, and a couch. I have lived in Ecuador, New Mexico, Seattle, Edmonton and now here in San Diego, I have travelled through different cities within the US, Canada, Costa Rica, Brazil, and Ecuador.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling as a tourist filters richness of experiences that can be feel more real when shared in person.
Wanting to connect with people from different parts of the world and exchange perspectives, ideas and cultural traditions.
I won't be able to travel for sometime, so wanting to have traveling energy around, I'd like to host people who are in that path.

Interests

I am a scientist in training, with a deep desire to learn more about spirituality, humanness, the inner self and being alive. Learning about cultures and traditions has helped me live a more meaningful life.
