Overview
About Me
PLEASE READ MY ENTIRE PROFILE AND THE ABOUT MY HOME SECTION BEFORE REQUESTING A STAY.
I am a Puerto Rican engineer living in New Orleans.
I love to always have a good time, go out, grab drinks, eat good food (Big Foodie and NOLA is good for that), listen to live music, sports, etc. I just like to have fun and I would love to show others around my current home of New Orleans. And if you want to learn about Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 I would love to share my home and my culture with you too. I am an open book always feel free to ask me anything.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I realized in 2015 that I have not traveled enough in my life. So I took it upon myself to change that fact. So far been pretty successful juggling a full time job and making many trips throughout North/Central/South America, and Southeast Asia. I know that there are many people in this world that are as curious of this world as I am. I mean our planet is HUGE, how can we be ok by not exploring it and learning from it! I take great joy in meeting new people that are like minded with this world and I LOVE to learn about this world through other traveler’s perspective. I also love to show people my side of the world, and with me you get two sides, Puerto Rican (Latin American side) and United States American (I don’t like saying American because everyone in North/Central/South America are Americans. Pet Peeve being Puerto Rican and speaking Spanish here in USA). I am an open minded human and am accepting of everyone. So while I am here I would love to meet fellow travelers from around the world, get to know them, them get to know me, and share a drink or two while walking around the great and fun city of New Orleans! Oh yea and you will love my dog, Nala 🐕 Apparently every couch surfer tries to take her with them LOL If you read my references you will see she is mentioned as much or more than me 😂
The best thing about Couchsurfering is the friendships I have made while participating in this network. Through here I have met the best people on this planet and I keep in touch with all my past surfers.
