I believe we are all on a journey; self exploration, liberation, adventure, connection. My journey makes sudden turns at times and I hope that connecting with people and utterly enjoying life is a frequent turn.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Nothing more valuable than to share experiences with others; conversation, great company, food and wine, perfect ! If I host you, I will do my best to show you around, share food and certainly wine and beer with you. if I am not working, I can drive around.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
Gold prospecting at age 13 with friends for a month in the mountains. Running across the U.S. Mexico border illegally at age 14 for fun ! Getting a doctorate after being in the U.S. illegally for many years and not knowing English at all ! but the greatest things I have done is to love others and to connect with others... Nothing beats that, nothing !
What I Can Share With Hosts
Food, wine, wine, beer and stories; great company and hospitality. I can show you around LA if I am not working. Play guitar? sing? great, lets do this !
My Interests
stimulating conversations are addicting ! sharing stories a must. Play soccer at times, beach is great; microbreweries, pubs, museums, libraries; hiking, trekking reading, movies at times, but nothing beats sharing time and stories with fellow travelers In regards to "Try everything at least once".... Nope. I don't have to try some things to know I am better off not doing them
