I work in South America, leading overland truck tours from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and travel when I find time between tours. I love languages and being outside, and am always up for a laugh. Let's hike or drink a beer!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am nomadic! I live on the road, always between new friends in new places, collecting cultural knowledge along the way. Would love to add your worldview to the collection.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked as a trek guide on the very active Fuego and Pacaya Volcanos outside Antigua, Guatemala for two years, between zipline days and giving tours to the stunning Tikal National Park.

Teach, Learn, Share

I speak Spanish but am struggling with Portuguese! I am happy to do a language exchange of any kind, or just to learn more about where you are from.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share English and Spanish language skills, Central and South American cuisine, and knowledge of current Latin American and pre-colonial cultures. We can talk micro finance and the evolution of human bipedalism or just go for a run, hike, or out for a beer!
