I am the guy on the left next to my mother and brother.

My goal in life is to do what makes you happy, spread positivity and value the time around your loved ones, but also be open to meet new people and learn from others.

I am a 25 year old Dominican Swede currently studying Marketing at Uppsala University in Sweden. Besides studying I am a very outgoing and social person who loves to get to know new people and learn about different cultures. Something I really enjoy is good conversations while getting to know someone over a glass of wine or tea :)

I also enjoy dancing, playing football (or soccer for those who want to call it that :P) discovering cool rooftop bars, seeing new places and making new friends.

Being raised in a multicultural household, I consider myself a very flexible person, meaning that I am comfortable in all kinds of environments and will make the best of the situation I am in.

I did my bachelor's degree in Manchester
Finishing up my Master's in Uppsala
Doing an exchange in Tokyo

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that Couchsurfing is a great place where like minded people can meet and connect through the common interest of learning about new cultures and making friends. It is so much more fun showing someone around a city you/they love while sharing experiences together
