About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel to unknown places, live life in the moment, and try new things.

ABOUT ME

I have had the opportunity to live in several cities because my father was in the military. I have spent most of my life in Texas. I went to college in Austin, TX where I graduated with a mechanical engineering degree. I am friendly, outgoing, and adventurous! I am Mexican so I can speak Spanish as well. I have played the trumpet since 6th grade, so music is a big part of my life.

KCCO!

PHILOSOPHY

I like to try new things at least once so that I can learn what I enjoy in life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet new people to share past and new experiences. Couchsurfing is a really great way to explore a new city because the locals have good recommendations for places to see.

Interests

Exploring the city, attending events and festivals, bike riding, running, photography, playing soccer, dancing, meeting new friends, trying new restaurants, traveling

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
