About Me

Hey ya'll! Im new to CS and wold love to host surfers at my home. It is located in a safe and quite area of the ABQ. I share it will three other lovely roommates that all love to travel and share experiences. As I said before I'm new to all of this and looking to gain the exerience to be a pro host and surfer. Durring the day I am a grad student at University of New Mexico studying physical education. I love to backpack and try new food. My favorite hobby outside of traveling is riding my motorcycle around New Mexico.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to gain more experience and insight about this world so that I can better go off and be an educator. I'm studying to be a teacher and I have come to realize in my studies that the best teacher is experience. My goal is to learn as much about culture, people, and history in order to make myself a well-rounded teacher.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently just got done riding my Kawasaki 636 from Chicago to Albuquerque on route 66. I packed all my things into my backpacking pack and camped at truck stopped along the way. I think it was my favorite solo trip I've ever done and would love to share all my pictures and memories!

Teach, Learn, Share

As a licensed physical education teacher, I love to teach people how to properly exercise, diet, and live well. My undergrade degree was in kinesiology and I love helping people with chronic pain issues. I also love teaching people how to cook metabolic meals that maximize muscle growth.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook for people with local ingredients and share experiences. I can also be a tour guide for the ABQ and NM. In addittion, I love taking pictures to hold memories. I generally use my Minolta X-7A and Instax to capture the moment.
