About Me

I love dad jokes and bad puns, be warned. I work as a flight attendant, this is my 11th year doing it, 8 of which I spent based in Dubai. I am fortunate enough to have traveled to a lot of countries, thanks to my job in the aviation industry. But I think I will never get tired of interacting with different cultures!
I love working out and eating healthy, so you'll probably find me excited about having a great breakfast or lunch right after some good amount of exercise! that said, I do know how to enjoy a big hearty meal! I'm vegan but I always make sure I can accommodate :)

Apart from loving anything related to fitness, I am passionate about photography and cinematography. I quit my job after 8 years to move to LA and train as an actor, and fell in love again with my very first passion, photography. I love taking portraits and if you're keen, I'll be more than happy going for a photoshoot :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am very new to Couchsurfing and decided I would like to travel the world in a different way than I used to before.

Currently I share my apartment with my family, so I am not able to host, but willing to return the favor as soon as I have the means to, I understand how important it is to pay it forward.

Solo traveling nearly of the time and I would like to make friends and explore new places with some locals and fellow travelers, so think this is one of the best and most efficient ways to find out what's happening and maybe have great experiences.

I really want to experience the local culture and get to know people from the area that like to share the way they live the life!

Teach, Learn, Share

Apart from Spanish, I can teach you about the two things I enjoy the most in life, which are Fitness & Nutrition and photography! I am always happy to help!

I hope I can learn about the local customs and your language, as well if you have any thing you would like to share with a fellow traveler :)

I can share lots of travel tips I've collected throughout the years, and of course I will be more than happy of sharing a good conversation.

Also, I do portrait photography, and I'm always down for a photoshoot in some cool place!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love animals and also I would like to consider myself a decent cook, so if you need any animal caring or a good healthy meal, I can help! I am super tidy and respectful of other people's customs, and I understand everyone's time is different.

I love to help people train and help them achieve fitness goals, so I'll be more than provide any tips and info.
