Overview
About Me
Grown in San José, Costa Rica. Studied in a British School since kindergarten, which sometimes makes me fill my english is better than my english, shame on me :(
I am on my last year of uni finishing Industrial Engineering, but before this I leave in Beijing for 2 years. Loved the culture, loved the city and last but not least loved the food. Two of the best years of my life apart from the personal growth I met very interesting people with interesting point of view and some of my best friends .
I may not be the kind of guy that is always trying or planing to go on a journey, but if you ask me to join and go anywhere I'll never say no! I'll even help you plan, if you already have the initiative.
That been said I enjoy spending my time indoors as much as I enjoy spending time outdoors.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am currently finishing my university so I can not find much time to travel around, but my plan once finished is to grab a bike or a truck and drive all the way from Costa Rica to Chile.

Music, Movies, and Books
Electronic Music in General, a bit of Jazz or classic from time to time is nice. I enjoy going to small live performances and local theatre.
Love going to cinema and watching movies, although I hate going to the cinema on my own, so most of my time I end up watching movies on Netflix or Prime.
I used to read a lot kinda lost the habit in the last few years.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I would have said the greatest thing I have done was travel through South East Asia or climbing the highest peak in Costa Rica "Cerro Chirripó". But I would be lying ... the greatest thing I've done is sharing every minute I can with my family and friends. Loving as intensely as one can. Helping those unfortunate strangers who simply have had a tough life which seems to beet them up again and again when they try to get up. Getting in the end what I consider the biggest reward one can get, a sincere thank you and an honest smile.

I taught english in China, although I'm not very good at it I think. Haha
