Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
By surfing in as many places as I can. Spread the word to good interested travelers I met. Participating in my town. And most importantly use the couchsurfing philosophy during my travel- to be kind and inviting to the people you meet

Music, Movies, and Books
I´m a lover of all three, if I can´t have one, i revert to the other.
I really enjoy live music and dancing. Give me a good book and I'm lost. Movies are just fun.
Books: I love those page turners you just can´t set down! Also books that contemplate or talk about real things, things in life that we all kinda go ¨yea...how about that...¨, or books that make me laugh out loud.
Music: Hey I love shakin my butt, consequentially I like music that makes me move...that I can dance too. But you know also songs you can sing in the shower when nobody can hear you. And plus who doesn´t have a Jack Johnson day? Bob Marley day? Alanis Morrisette day? RHCP day? or a ¨I have no idea what that song is saying...but yea rock on¨ day?
Movies: No scary movies...why do that to yourself?
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I try to consider my most amazing accomplishment being alive. But I think I´m still looking for those amazing things...its a constant search.
One thing that comes to mind was swimming in the Pacific Ocean at midnight in Ecuador with bio-luminescence-glowing neon in the water!
Also, climbing Huayna Potosi 20,000 ft mountain in Bolivia. Swimming with pink dolphins in the Amazon. Going to the Galapagos and snorkeling with sharks :-/
Seeing the Grand Canyon. Cross US road trip.
Also something amazing I did (or didn't do rather) was travel around South America for a year from the Carribean to Tierra del Fuego, and somehow didn't see Machu Piccu....
