Just another soul caught in your typical "9 to 5" life, on a mission to get lost around the world one country at a time and break my routine.

Writing this feels like i am back in elementary struggling to write an essay haha.

I consider myself an honest, outgoing, open minded guy in search of new friendships around the world . I live for exploring the unknown, meeting new faces and cultures, hence my love for travel. My other passion is lifting weights and the science behind it (nutrition, rest, strength gains) Overall I'm very active so i enjoy anything outdoor related. With that being said, i also enjoy the nightlife, going out for a good drink and meal in the "local" parts of town meeting new people. Coffee is life. I find relaxation with a good cup of coffee over a nice conversation.
Fun fact, i love the beach but i hate swimming, go figure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One day reminiscing on my last trip to South America, i started watching travel vlogs on youtube and came across this site. In my mind, i had a feeling an awesome community like this existed and i'm glad i found it.

So, i decided that it was finally time to get out of my comfort zone and plan my first solo backpacking trip for as long as my job would allow (2.5 weeks) in hopes of finding myself and growing as a person as cliche as that sounds. I land in madrid September 5 and i dont have any set plans on where to go yet.

i hope to meet and socialize with like minded travelers and locals. Share a good laugh, knowledge, experiences and just that human connection.

I will be staying in hostels most of the time but i would like for someone to host me in every country once to get a genuine feel of what its like to live there and "swap shoes" with one another not for financial reasons.

With my situation i cant host at the moment but you're more than welcome to contact me . i can show you around southern california and help with any questions, concerns and suggestions.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Waking up one day in a small rundown antique hostel in san telmo, buenos aires. I got up, put my sandals on and walked the street. As i was walking, i looked around like a lost child, taking in all the architecture, smells, and activity. All my worries, and thoughts had disappeared. At that moment i realized i was in another part of the world and it was the best feeling ever.
