*Crested Butte is not close to Aspen, especially not in winter! If you are going to Aspen don't ask to stay here! I'm saving you a headache. Sorry!

I must check with my housemate before accepting any guests.

“I am not the only traveler, who has not repaid his debt...” -Lord Huron.
I traveled the world in my late teens and twenties, I now have an infinite debt to repay, as there is nothing more valuable than the friendship, hospitality and good will I received throughout my years of vagabonding.

"Don't forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!"

" Friendship is the only cure for hatred, the only guarantee for peace." - Buddha

Couchsurfing has enriched my life over the years, and I couldn't imagine having traveled without it. I've extended trips, visited places I would have never gone before, and been a repeat visitor to so many places because of the extraordinary friends I have made through CS.

Life is one grand adventure and I'm trying to make the most out of every moment!

I believe that the best things in life are free....smiles and hugs, friendship and love, hiking in silence, a universe of stars, good company, happiness, any special shared moment, frolicking and gallivanting, meeting new people...

"Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength." --Corrie ten Boom

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I couch surf! I travel with couch surfers! I meet them everywhere! And I host when I have a place available!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So many great experiences that have led to even better experiences.

I have to thank CS for introducing me to some of my best friends in the world including: Janna Alluaca (Ecuador), Mazen Masshadani(Syria) and Edison Candia Romero (Peru).

Some highlights are: cycling to Ingapirca with Geovanny and Fernando (CS Guayaquil, Ecuador), celebrating Ruben's birthday in Mompiche, Ecuador and camping in Bedouin tents with CSers in Syria.

Teach: I can teach you how to make a compost bin...I'm sure I know how to do other things...

Learn: There's nothing I wouldn't be willing to learn! Especially interested in languages and learning to play an instrument
