Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
I consider myself as a "Citizen of the World" because I was born and raised in Ecuador, lived in Egypt for three years, went to University in the USA, and am currently living and working HCMC, Vietnam. All of these experienced have allowed me to become a person who loves to travel, discover new cultures and meet new people.
PHILOSOPHY
"Life is short, so make the most of it" "Live life as if today were your last day"
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Since I am constantly traveling back and forth between Ecuador and Vietnam I would be more than happy to take people out sightseeing, food tasting, or just for advice and tips on Ecuador. Unfortunately as I am relatively new to Vietnam I am not as familiar with places here, or well enough to feel comfortable giving advice.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
My 1st experience with Couch Surfing was when I just moved to Vietnam and moved in with my mother. She was a couch surfer member who joined because she loves meeting people and through hosting surfers she was able to do just this. During my first few months we had two couch surfers stay with us and it was a very interesting experience to get to know people from other countries and I realized it was a great way to travel.
Interests
I love traveling to new places, meeting new people, extreme sports, listening to music, watching movies, playing board games as well as cards, and baking.
