Undergraduate student from Canada traveling to South America~

I am pretty tightie and organized and a bit of an introvert, which certainly does not help me with my couchsurfing endeavours, but regardless! I am here for unique experiences and I am pretty sure couchsurfing is a modern day must-do item while backpacking Europe (ie. where I joined the CS community) and now traveling the rest of the world!

a little background story: born in Bolivia, moved to Canada, study abroad'd in France, backpacked through Europe, and have heritage from China!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

On my way to South America - to my home country Bolivia - and passing by San Francisco (:

*Using CS as a catalyst to meet local people from the countries I am traveling through and possibly share my experiences and leave a little mark of me in the countries I might visit.

Interests

Broadly, discovering the secrets of life! There are countless ways in which different individuals live their life and cherish the moments in them... I believe one has to find this for himself or herself (:

Also, watching TV shows, movies and the big screen, the fine arts, anything aesthetic, a retired gamer, a newbie in architecture, business and marketing.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I dont particularly follow them as die-hard-fans but The Chainsmokers, P!nk, Katy Perry, One Republic, Boyce Avenue, are some... and my fair dose of EDM/dance/Pop/Alternative Rock/and mainstream/TOP40s

Movies: the Marvel series, the Pursuit of Happiness, the Devil Wears Prada, Shelter, recently into animated pictures like Big Hero 6!; genres: Drama > Comedy > Action > Thriller, and horror is a no no

Books: unfortunately haven't dwelled in this realm as much as I hoped... but i got a small list maybe I could get some suggestions!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Impromptu 4wheeler trip from the heart of the city of La Paz to the snowcap of the Ilimani Mountain!

Teach, Learn, Share

"Live as you were to die tomorrow, Learn as you were to live forever" or something similar was said by Gandhi (:

one of my Secret of Life: it is the trivial and minimal experiences that become forever branded in our life book and become immortalized... like for me, learning to make an origami crane while at the dentist waiting area has become a memory I would have never thought I would want to keep, but to this day, an origami crane brings me a type of joy that I simply cannot encompass in words (:

What I Can Share with Hosts
