Overview
About Me
I'm a Chicago based dude just riding the wave of life. I'm always looking to meet different peoples along the way and better understand world cultures.
Just joined couchsurfing recently - looking forward to more experiences and meeting other people around the world!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
More importantly for me is to gain cultural perspective. If I'm lucky enough to have you as a host, or just to meet up, I'd love to learn more about your culture and point of view on life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
* Public speeches in front of about a 1000 people.
* Took a 20 minute cable car up 4,000M to the Ba Na Hills in Da Nang, Vietnam (one the BEST views you'll see in this world.
* Won a pen drumming competition among my friends.
* Dabble with some (pretty bad) freestyle rapping.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you about Colombian upbringing, food and culture. American too, but I'm sure you get a lot more American travelers and have learned from them as well!
I would love to learn about your culture and why you choose to live where you live. Understanding and embracing world cultures is perhaps my top life passion.
We can share perspectives on life. I have quite the psychological mind, so I often get deep into the web of thoughts around motivation, self-inspiration, and regret (and how to try and live without it).
What I Can Share with Hosts
A unique perspective on life, stories to share, a drinking buddy, and knowledge on both American and Colombian culture and eats!
I can also cook a fantastic cereal, with the perfect ratio of milk and cereal flakes.
