About Me

Hey! I'm a software developer, university student, and explorer based in Boston, MA! I was born in Puerto Rico, travelled to Panama often to visit family, and have also explored China, St. Maarten, Italy, Argentina, Uruguay, and Montreal.

I love meeting people, eating food, and discovering new places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined Couchsurfing because I believe in authentic experiences and connections with people when I travel. I enjoy learning as much of the language of a country as I can before I go and doing my best to do things as locals do.

Interests

I cook often and I try to find as many new and diverse recipes as possible. My free time often involves finding new places to eat, playing games, working on software projects, and learning things. I go through random spurts of being interested in fitness, strength training, hiking/rock climbing, and adventure races like the Tough Mudder.

Other interests: Ancient Rome, history, social justice, gender studies, cheese tasting
