Hello CS community, I am Fabiola (better known as Faba). I am from Mexico but I am currently living in NJ. I came to USA as part of a cultural exchange program.
I got my degree in International Trade in Mexico and I'm currently studying Hospitality Management here.

Love sports (most of them) soccer and baseball are my preferences. I like either watching them or playing them. Currently, I pratice soccer and train for my next half marathon and a Marathon if possible. Love riding my bike in summer and walk long distances.

I am a cat lover and dog friendly.

I love meeting new people, the exchange program I participated in, gave me the chance to meet people from all over the world, I opened my mind to new ideas and new cultures.

I love coffee, it is a nice way to spend time while holding a conversation or reading a book.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My first time I tried couchsurfing was through a friend of mine in California and it was such a great adventure. Ever since, I decided to try it when I travel (when it's possible). It is an advantage to meet locals so you can get to explore the area the most possible.

CS is a great way to meet new people and make friends. You get to know a lot about another cultures trough traveler's experiences.

I usually surf or meet people on the way. I haven had a chance to host yet.

I love planning my trips and help people with it as well. If you are planning in coming to NY/NJ I can give you tips/advices and of course I am down to meet up.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Road trip with five girls that I didn't know; I met them the we started our trip. We planned everything trough FB. I was surprised how well organized we were and we got along very well.

Ran my first half marathon last year. It might doesn't mean so much to some of you but to me it is a big accomplishment.

Voluntering. I am currently volunteering at a hospital.

If you can help, do it. There are differetn ways to do it.
