CURRENT MISSION

I am travelling with a project I started in Mexico with $2 and some string and buttons. This project has satisfied my passion for travel and has already taken me on an adventure across Latin America, from Mexico to Argentina. The project continues now with a mission across the USA, coast to coast and back. This time with $1 and literally one string and one button. The end goal is a social venture with the aim of helping out people in need. More info at www.creativum.net .

By hosting me you are greatly helping me with this mission and project.

ABOUT ME, PERSONALLY

I was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA where prior to this crazy new lifestyle, I was a boring real estate agent for 6 years. Among other things, I have dabbled in building model cars, ATV riding, track, a little bit of boxing, football, and I had a short-lived relationship with golf. Now I find myself indulging in hiking, travelling, camping, reading, coffee, and well, living as much as I can! Coffee and chat or coffee and reading is one my favorites. I love talking LIFE and practical philosophy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

First of all, the social experience. I enjoy travelling and my project, mostly because of the people I have met and connected with.

Secondly, by hosting or giving me a spot to crash you would also be contributing a whole bunch to the completion of my mission.

During the day I would be mostly outdoors talking to people and promoting my project and it's GOFUNDME account. I would be low maintenance, gone during the day and back in the afternoon/evening. I wouldn't have all the time that a leisure traveler might.
