Hey guys, my name's Alex. I love meeting people for good conversation, food/drinks and to learn from each other's life experiences. I just got laid off from my job back in the states and decided to take a break from working and enjoy my life for a few months.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I believe in the art of gifting to help others. Especially, while traveling, its great to have an insider/local feedback on what to do/see/eat in their city. I'm from San Francisco and I love telling people why to come to San Francisco and love to help them when you do come! :)

Interests

I enjoy learning. I know, it sounds nerdy but it hits home with me. It's the reason why I act like a five-year old and constantly ask, "Why?" or "What is that?"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bought a house

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy helping others live minimally, create travel plans, and be their own wholesome self.

I enjoy learning other people's philosophical views, understanding other cultures, and cooking.

I enjoy sharing food, hysterical laughter, and beverages.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would more than happy to help pay for your food/drinks when we go out. It's the least I can do and more than willing to do my fair share of chores to help around the house. I have 3 roommates and being respectful of ones space, belongings, and time is always a high priority for me.
