Im an easygoing and outgoing guy engaged to another guy :), been in LA Since 2011. I love walking and exploring cities, curious to know about our planet home, travel more, and communicate with people from all places. I am eager to see how different cultures and cities are affected by diverse historical or environmental factors!
I enjoy creating spaces through architecture and you may find some of my works here:

PHILOSOPHY

I think everything in the world for billions of years has been transforming and evolving and We human got the intelligence to think and study this journey. I'm mostly very positivist and happy for the chance to live on our planet. I don't follow any one religion or belief system. Tell me what you think and who you are and I will listen. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Because of my Urban-Architecture field of study I'm eager to study cities not only through books but by walking there in real and meet with people who live there. Meeting People who are curious about others fulfill me ...I hope to meet more couchsurfers through travel.
