I am half British, half Mexican, I grew up between Italy and the Sultanate of Oman. I just finished up my Bachelors degree in New York City and now looking onwards to what is next! I'm a very easy going guy who loves being outside, making stuff (hence the engineering), laughing, and just generally taking advantage of the time available!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I signed up because I am cycling across the United States, and in all of my traveling experiences it has often been the people you meet who stand out the most and get ingrained into your memory. Couchsurfing seems like a great way to meet people who are willing to help me out (thus inherently cool people) to make my way across the U.S.A!

Interests

Pretty much any type of outdoor sport, but mainly: Whitewater Kayaking, Skiing, Mountaineering, Climbing, Biking, Sailing, Scuba Diving.
