CURRENT MISSION

Traveling and not being too irresponsible about it

ABOUT ME

Hello everyone! My name is Matt, I´m from the US. Introverted-extrovert: I love meeting new people and new experiences (it's like a rush, why I love CS!) but I also need my downtime. More than likely sarcastic, always helpful. Go ahead and ask away...

PHILOSOPHY

Never leave anything on the field-always live to the fullest.
That's the closest I'll ever come to making a sports quote. Also, "momma didn't raise a quitter".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Never hosted anyone through CS, but I´ve met some pretty incredible individuals from San Francisco to Quito, Rio, Amsterdam, Barcelona, and more.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love language exchanges: English (native speaker) Spanish and Portuguese (not native but working on it). I'm game for learning new languages wherever I go. I'd love to start rock climbing, and to begin competing in triathlons.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Travel tips, stories, buffoonery. If you need a running coach, probably that too. Beer knowledge.
