Overview
About Me
Hello! I am a 23 year old law student currently living in Heredia, Costa Rica.
I am a very easy going, friendly person. Essentially, I considere myself an open minded person and overall a nice guy.
I love meeting new, interesting people, just to hang out, to create contacts, friendships. Moreover, I think we are capable of being entrepreneurs even in our relationships towards each other and our daily experiences.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I have always lived in Costa Rica, but I have done a bit of travelling. However, as a student I don't have a big budget for travelling, rather I try to save as much as possible in order to visit more places, and meet wonderful new people.
I think Couchsurfing is a great experience for everybody, but specially for young adults who are looking for new experiences in their lives.
I know from experience that there are generous and great people in every town around the world.
Interests
I enjoy photography, theatre, literature, going to the gym, yoga, and all kind of movies. Not only that, but also I specially like outdoor activities, like hiking, and taking awesome nature pictures while sipping coffee from a thermos.
Likewise, I really like getting to know a place by getting to know the customs, the sites, and specially the food, and coffee culture.
Additionally, to me it's all about being the nicest person you can be, trying new things to make yourself a healthier and richer person. Seeing that we are only in this planet for a limited amount of time, I believe we owe ourselves to take as much care of our integral being through all means possible.

Music, Movies, and Books
Reading is fundamental! And so, I try to read as much as I can. My favourite author is Hermann Hesse, I basically love everything about his work. I've also enjoyed reading some great science fiction literature of authors including Julius Verne, Ray Bradbury, and HG Wells. Additionally I've recently "discovered" Thomas Mann, Pearl S. Buck, and a whole other bunch.
I've always loved classical music (Vivaldi, Handel, Bach, Mozart), but I also currently like: Years & Years, Bruno Mars, Montmartre, Sia, Kylie Minogue, Empire of the Sun, Lorde, Disclosure, The Strokes...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
By far the most amazing experience I've ever had was to spend a week in Lapland, Finland. I got to see the northern lights every night and that was the absolute best! I also rode on snow motorcycles, on husky sledge, I went skiing, and played on the snow (I had the time of my life there!).
Teach, Learn, Share
I am more than happy to help you out with Spanish, since it is my native language. I could also help out to improve or practice your english in case it isn't your native language.
I'm more than happy to share my cultural knowledge, as little as it is. And also tips on a healthy lifestyle.
What I Can Share with Hosts
My experience is limited, but I can offer a pleasant company, traditional food from my country, kindness and friendship.
