I grew up in Venezuela and I've been living in Quito for 8 years. I'm programmer (web developer) and I like playing guitar and singing, lately I try to learn in the guitar some of salsa or merengue but if you like rock I can play 2 or 3 as well :).

I like the teamwork, then you can be sure I will be enjoy to colaborate on averything at home, and I can prepare insane arepas, they have been a fantastic tool for creating new friends traveling, if you try my arepas, I'm sure you'll want my friendship with included arepas :).

I love walking, tasting chocolates and beers.

I'm married and have 1 child (9).

I have made wondefull friends around the world from this app, I received people from around the world in Quito and we kept in touch and I have visited some of them in their countries :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

8 years ago my answer was:
I want to meet foreign people to know other cultures and to practice my English with native speking English people, to accomodate a new friend for some days can be an excited experience.

Now:
This is a beautifull oportunity to be more human... to try to comunicate with other one with out understand his/her language, trying a food totally different than the food that you have eaten, understanding another way of living and it doesn't matter if you are agree or not, if you like it or not, but you can learn to respect it and understand it.
