CURRENT MISSION

Visit new countries and make new friends for all four corners of the world. If you don't know where you are going, take any road to get there.

ABOUT ME

I try to have a positive outlook on life, and I try to have fun whenever possible. I very much enjoying meeting new people, traveling, and learning about other cultures.

I am born and raised in Austin TX. American of Mexican descent. I try to embrace the best of both cultures but sometimes I feel caught between two different worlds. That said, I am proud to be the result of two wonderful cultures. Fluent in English and Spanish.

I enjoy watching films. Science fiction films are my favorite. Especially the films that follow the superhero mythology, Marvel or DC comics. But I also enjoy comedy, drama, and action films.

Outdoor activities are fun for me, camping, hiking, cycling, and swimming. I very very much enjoying snorkeling. I did bungee jumping once and I would like to try skydiving.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know if I will have a next life. So I will enjoy this one!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just joined couchsurfing but I hope to really dive in as soon as I get my degree and finish school or in-between school semesters. So far, I have shown other surfers around my city of Austin. And I have attended some meetings and met new people both surfers and locals.

I have three grand travel plans that involve couchsurfing. I would like to take a road trip and couchsurf across southwest and northwest United States for a month and a half. Also, I would like to couchsurf across the Middle East for a month. Finally, I would like to couchsurf across South America for three months.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not had a chance to couchsurf yet but I hope to start sometime in the year 2015. I have met several surfers in Austin both out of state and local Austin residents. I would like to take a road trip and couchsurf this wonderful country soon. Also I will host surfers, most likely during my semester breaks.
