ABOUT ME

I'm 29 years old, and am a barber here in Austin, Texas. I speak Spanish y siempre estoy tratando mejorar mi abilidad de hablarlo. I want to learn Italian and Brazilian Portuguese as well. I haven't hosted any couchsurfers yet, nor have I done any couchsurfing, but am looking forward to trying it.

I like art, music, and coffee. Generally, for fun I enjoy seeing live music, going out for a drink, shooting pool, hanging out at the coffee shop, and being outside.

Also, if you speak Spanish or Portuguese, I would be more than happy to practice language with you!

PHILOSOPHY

I don't have an overarching personal philosophy per se. I have a rather libertarian outlook, being that I value individual sovereignty/freedom and its fullest expression, while respecting and defending that same right as it belongs to others. Oh yeah, and have fun.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” -Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain)

Be exactly who you want to be, do what you want to do
I am he and she is she but you're the only you
No one else has got your eyes to see the things you see
It's up to you to change your life and my life's up to me.
The problems that you suffer from are problems that you make.
The shit we have to climb through is the shit we choose to take.
If you don't like the life you live, change it now it's yours. --CRASS

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Il Duomo in Florence was incredible, as is most of Florence. I'd say that's been the best experience I've had thus far in my travels.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would be interested in language exchange, and could help you learn/improve upon English skills in exchange for help learning español, Brazilian Portuguese, or Italian.
