About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Leave each place I visit better than I found it.

ABOUT ME

Hello, I'm Sebastian. I was born in Bogota, Colombia and I moved to the United States (North Carolina) when I was 12. I did my undergrad at University of North Carolina at Greensboro, and I am currently doing my master's at North Carolina State University. I live with my brother Diego. I have a conspiracy theory that "adults" and "mature" people don't actually exist. So as long as we are taking care of the important stuff, why not have fun!

Please send me requests at least a week in advance so I can check with my brother and make sure he's ok with it. He takes a while to get back to me. Also, please include the time you think you'll be arriving in the first email.

PHILOSOPHY

Pragmatism, Moderation, Benevolence, Curiosity, Humor.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well, the guy that introduced me, Max, was meeting up with a guy from the couch surfing website named Nick. We went to KTV and we had a blast. We put on bohemian rhapsody and sang to the top of our lungs even doing the wayne's world headbang scene.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

On three day train ride from Guilin to Shanghai the second day was absolute peace. I had no place to go, nothing to do, but at the same time I was going somewhere and doing something. I texted my parents to thank them for the opportunity to travel and I sat in the restaurant carriage by the window in the sun.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like learning new drinking games. If you know one you should teach me one. Granted, I don't tend to remember how they go very well for obvious reasons.
