ABOUT ME

What to say...? Well, I am not going to write me life story here. I am a friendly, active, and interesting individual who loves to make new friends and companions. I love to travel, and experience all that life has to offer. I never shy away from a conversation, debate, or party. I am also a musician and love to make all kinds of music. I look forward to meeting you!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to couch surfing, and am ready to get active!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have done lots of couch surfing when traveling although it was without the help of this website (just though meeting kind and generous people everywhere I've been). Looking to give back and meet great, responsible, and consciously active people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed an active volcano in Guatemala.
Went to 3 of the holiest sites for Muslims Christians and Jews in the same day.
Have been to the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, and Carnaval in Brazil (two craziest parties I've ever seen. Met the Buena Vista Social Club in Mexico, drank rum and smoked a Cohiba in Havana on the y2K Newyears, lived most of my life where the winters see -40 temperatures, went on a 28 day canoe trip when I was 15 (still trying to out-do that one), climbed into the temple of doom in Petra, Jordan, floated in the Dead Sea.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Capoeira Angola, drumming (samba, drum-set and more, I recently learned how to make African Shekere's (percussion instrument made from a gourd). I can teach canoeing, cross country skiing, and skateboarding. I can teach basic Spanish. Finally I can teach communication skills (I'm a social worker).
These are things I love to teach people. I would love to learn anything that you might have to offer.
