ABOUT ME
Create your own visitor map!
Oh man I hate questions like these, it's so hard because it actually makes me think and I have to use my brain......I am a very outgoing person, I absolutely love meeting new people and showing them around my hometown. I have an amazing sense of humor, I love to laugh and I love being around people who can laugh at themselves, I think that is an admirable skill to have. I like to have a good time, but still be safe while I'm doing it. That's not to say that I don't like a good adventure, I just mean be smart about what I am doing and use my head. I love anything adventerous, especially if it is outdoors. I love to make new friends and explore other cultures. I enjoy spending time with people who are funny, considerate and are lookng to have a good time. I don't drink, but I have no problem hanging out with those who do, as long as they know their limits and keep it in check. Other than that, I guess you'll just have to get to know me! I would love to hear from anyone so please if you have something to say, lets talk!
PHILOSOPHY
Personal philosophy, hmm......... I guess to just be the best person I can be. I know that sounds lame but I'm not really in a very philosophical state of mind right now. Hopefully I'll think of something better to write later on........
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm actually new to this whole couchsurfing thing but I loved the idea so much that as soon as I heard about it I signed up! I really just want to help show other people my culture and learn from them and theirs. The world is so huge I just want to expierence as much of it as I can, as well as help others to do the same.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Not too much couchsurfing expierence. I did stay with my brothers-girlfriend's family who I had never met before when I went to Mexico City and that was an amazing experience. I learned that the only way to really experience a place is by hanging with the locals. It was awesome being able to just partake in their daily life and see what it was all about.
Interests
I love extreme sports and will partcipate in anything with a board (skate, snow, sand, dirt, surf, ect...). I am a HUGE soccer fan and I love to play it as well as watch it. I love traveling of course, and I absolutely love learning about new cultures. I enjoy reading, and watching movies. I am actually a huge film buff so if anyone ever wants to talk movies, lets do it! I enjoy Scuba Diving, horsebackriding, hiking, swimming, basically anything outdoors.

Music, Movies, and Books
Way, way, to many to list. For Music: Juanes, Shakira, Julieta Venegas, La Oreja de Vangogh to name a few. As for books and movies if I even tried to name a few I would be here forever trying to figure out which ones to put so lets just say, pretty much anything and everything. Although I do have to give a shout out to las peliculas de Almodovar.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Probably the most recent one would be Scuba Diving with 9ft Bull sharks off the coast of Fiji. That was insane and defiently one of the coolest things I have ever done. Another one would be participating in a political protest deep in the jungles of Central Mexico, that was something I will never forget. Hiking Machu Pichhu, Surfing in Mancora, Swimming in the Amazon River and cisting Iguazu Falls are all worth mentioning
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach english or spanish. Also a bunch of sports, Soccer, skateboarding, wakeboarding, snowboarding. I would really love to learn how to dance so that it looks cool, instead of the spastic moves I do now.
