ABOUT ME
I was born and grew up in a small village in the south of Ecuador, my parents moved there over thirty years ago from California to do conservation work. I did not have television, internet or videogames as a child so I spent most of my time climbing trees, rescuing and caring for injured animals, and exploring nature. This all shaped who I am now.
PHILOSOPHY
Be grateful for everything :-)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I Surf, I hang out and I host. I only host people that truly engage with the community of couch surfing. I will not host someone who has not hosted anybody before, and I will not host anybody who has a reply rate less than 80% because I don’t think it is cool not to reply :-b

wonderful
Interests
Exploring the outdoors, Gardening, crafts (anything creative), baking (cupcakes, cookies, cakes, and other sweets), caring for animals, dancing (Latin music), I love to clean. Some people think I am nuts, but cleaning is therapeutic for me, but I can also make great messes during creative projects and gardening.
