About Me

Originally from Colombia 🇨🇴 I now live in Calgary, Canada 🇨🇦 and love it. I'm easygoing, sarcastic, and quite reserved at first but a lot more social once I get comfortable with my environment.
*Ask me about motorcycles, easy conversation starter.
*Against drugs (life is already beautiful, don't need drugs to enjoy it)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to be more adventurous and see the world. I plan on backpacking Europe within the next couple months and hope to use CS for that. If that trip goes well I would like to continue visiting other countries.

I'd also like to gain some more life experience by traveling and meeting new people. I believe this is what makes people more "well rounded" so to speak.

Interests

Motorcycles, all martial arts, fitness, learning new languages, rock climbing, eating new foods, meeting new people, learning about different religions, the Flash is one of the coolest superheroes ever. I don't smoke often, but I do enjoy a good cigar.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach Spanish, how to ride a motorcycle, Self Defense (I have been doing martial arts for just over 10yrs), the self Defense mindset , good sense of humour, willing to help out with what I can while with my future hosts. I currently work at a gym and have been working out for about 8yrs so can help with fitness as well (ie, how to do a proper deadlift, squat, core activation, etc).
