Hi! I’m Erick Acevedo. I was born in Nicaragua and raised in Panama, so I feel connected to both cultures. I’m 25 years old, and since I was a child, traveling the world has been my biggest dream — and now I’m finally turning that dream into reality.

I’m currently studying English at the University of Panama, and I truly love languages and cultural exchange. For me, learning a language is not just about grammar — it’s about understanding people, their stories, and their way of seeing life.

I work in customer service, which has helped me become patient, respectful, and a good listener. I consider myself open-minded, clean, organized, and very mindful of other people’s spaces.

I’m a big foodie! I love cooking and trying different dishes from around the world. I’d be happy to cook something traditional from Panama or Nicaragua for you. Sharing food, stories, and laughter around a table is one of my favorite ways to connect.

Traveling alone has helped me grow a lot as a person. It has pushed me out of my comfort zone and taught me independence, trust, and gratitude. I truly value meaningful conversations, good energy, and respectful connections.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because I truly believe traveling is not only about seeing places, but about connecting with people. I love experiencing cultures from a local perspective, sharing stories, and creating meaningful connections. For me, it’s about trust, respect, and the opportunity to learn from each other. I think staying with locals makes every trip more authentic and unforgettable.
