CURRENT MISSION

To continue to show and be shown higher vantage points

ABOUT ME

In 2007 I finished undergrad degrees in Philosophy and English at La Pontificada Universidad, Chile. From there I spent 10 months backpacking and volunteering in South America. For the past two years I have been living in Guatemala and working as director of the educational development organization Nuestros Ahijados. We work to educate 4,000 orphaned and abandoned children so they can break the vicious cycle of generational poverty. I´m the author of "iPoems for the Dolphins to Click Home About" and "The Expeditioner´s Guide to the World" both available from Amazon.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is now, live it. Whatever ´this´ is, we´re all in it together. Let´s help each other get the most out of life and be kind to each other. Noone ever died from too much kindness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in right outside Antigua, Guatemala with my photographer extraordinaire roommate. The extra bedroom that we use for couch surfers currently is being lived in for the summer, so I am basically just available to grab a coffee with you and show you the city. But if you really need a place to crash, I have a hammock and a floor that you´re welcome to use...probably the the most comfortable option though...

And if you are looking for a place to volunteer, the organization I direct helps 2,000 volunteers every year make a difference.

Interests

Yoga, Meditation, Reading, Writing, Dancing, Lava, Writing people notes, Playing Guitar, Playing Piano,

I smile back at my smile. I wear many hats in this life, but always in writer’s clothes ✍️
