About Me

Until 2013 I was living in San Diego, CA for 6 years until I got into an entrepreneurship program called Start Up Chile. I sold all of things and moved to Chile for 8 month in Feb 2013 to work on my software business.

The startup turned into a small lifestyle business and I've been working/living "on the road" ever since Chile. I like slow travel, so will usually spend a few months in 1 city/country at a time.

For about half the year, I live in a small ski town in British Colombia, Canada called Revelstoke during the winter for skiing. The mountains are a great place to recharge.

It can be tiring living out of a suitcase, but I've had so many incredible experiences along the way that it's hard to stop.

I was living in Colombia when a friend invite me to Russia for the World Cup to support Colombia. I will be here until July 18.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My best experiences while traveling have always been with locals. I've been fortunate to have many friends around the world, and I'd like to use CS to continue meeting locals.

I currently live out of my suitcase, but when I have a home someday I would like to host travelers as a way to "give back" for all of the amazing experiences I've had.

Interests

My biggest interest is skiing. I spend 5 months out of the year living in an amazing ski town in British Colombia, Canada. I've spent the past 4 winter seasons there.

I lived in San Diego for 6 years where I was surfing nearly every day. I've surfed in USA, Mexico, Costa Rica, Chile, Spain, and Indonesia.

Lately, I've been very much into yoga. When I'm more settled in 1 location, I try to go to yoga 3-4 times a week.
