About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Balance. Just that.

ABOUT ME

I try to look at life in the most positively sarcastic way possible, if that makes any sense :) My home is either south or west of wherever i am at this very moment and if it wasn't for a moleskine and post-it notes, i wouldn't get anything done.

I've spent my life between Venezuela, the US and Spain.

I always miss the people i meet in books.

PHILOSOPHY

'And don't worry about losing. If it is right, it happens - The main thing is not to hurry. Nothing good gets away.'

'It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; What is essential is invisible to the eye.'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would love to meet up with anyone who comes to visit! I just moved to Miami so I'm still getting my bearings but I am down to explore and get to know this place. My social life consists of what I get to do through my job, still working on the whole making friends thing.
I host when i can (official and unofficial), I spread the word to friends and help out anyone interested in knowing info about Orlando, Spain or Venezuela!

I can admit i've put my 'cs life' on hold for the past 3 years :( In an attempt to go back to leading a normal lifestyle i will try to get back to hosting and cs'ing around Miami.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

From my Europe adventure in '08, i've surfed in France, the UK, Spain and Germany, island adventures in FL, movie nights, potlucks, picnics in the south of France, concerts, etc. I'm in love with this project.
So far, every single couch surfer I've met has been amazing!

I continue to share my couch whenever i can.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: ALL KINDS! seriously, i have the most eclectic taste in music ever. I use to work for Virgin Megastore in the World room so I can show you a ton of music from around the world!

Books: Kurt Vonnegut. i enjoy them Harry Potter books... too much. Saramago, Milan Kundera, Neruda, Wally Lamb, Bukowski, Henry Miller, Roberto Bolano, Hemingway, Albert Camus, Carlos Ruiz Zafon, Mario Benedetti, Steinbeck, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Mario Vargas Llosa... I am all over the place with books. I LOVE THEM!

Movies... all... I have come to the conclusion that this question is too complex and i could be typing in this box for eternity.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived on the top of a mountain for half of my life.
