Hi! I'm Thomas, I'm 29 years old, I'm from Houston, Texas originally, but I live in a small town near Portland, Oregon. I quit my job in 2016 to do some longer-term travel while I'm still (relatively) young and don't have too much tying me down.

Hola! Soy Thomas, tengo 29 ańos, soy de Houston, Texas originalmente, pero vivo en un pueblo pequeño cerca de Portland, Oregon. Renuncié mi trabajo en 2016 para viajar mientras soy joven y no tengo muchas obligaciones, como una familia o una casa.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because meeting new and interesting people is the best part of traveling. Staying with local people is also an awesome way to get a feel for what it's like to actually live in a city. I've only Couchsurfed a few times, but I've always had a great experience.

Utilizo Couchsurfing porque conocer personas nuevas y interesantes es el mejor parte de viajar. También, quedar con personas locales es una manera buena para entender realmente como es de vivir en una ciudad. He usado Couchsurfing solo unas pocas veces, pero siempre he tenido una experiencia muy buena.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can play the piano (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwH_l07P2Yo) pretty well, and if you want to learn, I would love to give you some lessons or teach you a song. I also play the guitar a little and could give some basic lessons for that instrument as well, if you want.

Se me da bien tocar el piano, y si quieres aprender, me encantaría enseñarte unos conceptos o una canción. También, toco la guitarra un poco y podría mostrarte algo sobre este instrumento, si querías.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd be more than happy to work on some tasks or projects around the house/yard, cook a meal, or whatever else I might be able to do help you out!

Me encantaría trabajar en unas tareas o proyectos alrededor la casa o el patio, cocinar una comida, o lo que sea yo podría ayudarte.
