I am visual artist & musician based in the Baltimore, MD area. At the moment I am traveling in the Amazon of Peru - doing field research with photography, video, and sound in relation to the ecology and culture of the Amazon. I speak both English y Espańol. Have an itch for traveling and connecting with new people/places. Im always down for a good conversation!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Its a great way of meeting people and establishing new connections. It also beats hotels, when you want to go on a real adventure....also why not?
