Overview
About Me
Touring North America on my Motorcycle. promoting the charity AngelsinLomitas and Trying to be the first Cuban to ride around the world solo. Always looking for new adventure buddies to travel with. I want to see and meet as many people and places as possible. .I don't smoke or drink but will gladly be the designated driver.I like to have fun but not an adrenalin junky. Sitting on a beach reading a book is as much fun for me as riding my motorcycle. .I served in the United States Marine Corps and NJ Army National Guard...I'm respectful and live by the golden rule..
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm not rich so trying to go around the world is brutally hard. I've had many set backs from being rear ended by a speeding car on my first leg of the trip. It totaled my bike but luckily not me. My building burning down the day before the second part of my trip. (it was a total loss left with the clothes on my back)...to my motor breaking while i was crossing the country. But im still going and im on a new bike that will hopefully make it around the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
when I was a young kid I told myself I would ride a custom bike I built around the country for my 40th birthday. I did it. Although I had set backs and had to ride 8,000 miles of it in 30 days. It was during the coldest November in recent history. I had no heated gear and only enough money to just make it across part of the country. I went for it and made it all the way across. on a 30 state run.
