My name is Juan and I'm from Wales originally. I live in Cumbria in England. Work as a youth worker, hopefully inspiring youngsters to turn their lives around. I'm a positive person, who wants to push my comfort zone, and try new things.

Once couch surfed in Mexico City and that was a great experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet locals and learn about new cultures. And just have a great time and make memories.
