hmm I never know what to say in these things. I'm a second generation American. Family from Ecuador. Went to a New England boarding school. Now I'm a college graduate, working in the Chrysler Building in New York City. I just turned 24 and 2015 is going to be the year that I travel the heck out of this world. I'm down to try anything new, take risks, and make you laugh while doing it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm going to be traveling in the near future and I'd love to meet cool new people. I mean, isn't that why everyone does this? Also, I've never done this and it can be new and/or dangerous but I'm trying to get over this fear because I don't want to miss out on any experiences.

Interests

I love to laugh, and I'll be dreadfully corny to do so. Lately I've been a workaholic commuting to/from New York City. But I use the money to travel, learn Chinese (mandarin), SING, dance, and watch sunsets and movies equally. I've been to Canada, Ecuador, China, and various states in the US by road trip or otherwise.

I love the ocean and the sun is always my friend. Also I

Music, Movies, and Books

Being completely honest, I love indie alt music on the regular, but that runs runs its course, I need some DANCE music, (latin, techno, pop etc). I watch way too many movies to ever have a favorite, it really depends on who I'm with. As for books, I love reading just about anything, but my favorite book of all time has got to be The Alchemist by Paolo Coehlo.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have won an internationally held contest for foreign born Chinese singers. Does that count?

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share corny jokes, teach beginner Chinese, advanced Spanish, I can critique your resume for top tier financial firms in NYC, cook dinner, and be a great friend if you'll have me. :)
