COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

After i got out of high school I started traveling. I traveled for a year, visiting relatives in Mexico and just traveling back and forth across the US. I was fortunate to learn about couch surfing.I have now understood CS as a kind of cultural free-school. I'm totally humbled by all the exuberant hospitality I received.

I'd like to learn more about swimming and climbing things, and Spanish, If you can talk to me like a 4 year old in Spanish, that would be great.
