CURRENT MISSION

to visit places far beyond the horizon, immerse myself in different cultures, consume the local fare, experience the nightlife, converse with natives, and photograph as many precious moments as I can!

ABOUT ME

I live, eat, and breathe to Travel and photograph my experiences. I was bitten by the travel bug at an early age, bout 2 years old.

Im a Gemini and have a careful side and a care-free side. When I'm traveling to far away places, Im care free. I become like a sponge and I want to absorb everything.

I'm very adventurous, maybe to much sometimes! I ALWAYS want to go where people say "oh, you can't go there" , or "you shouldn't go there"
Im like, if other human beings live there and call this place "home" why not???

In Rio, I explored some "bad" areas on foot

In Caracas, we (my bro and I) walked down El Conde, en route to our hotel late at night which is not advised for tourists to do.

In Buenos Aires, I explored, on foot, the La Boca area of town which they call a "slum"

In Puerto Rico , I drove threw La Pearla, an infamous ghetto in Old San Juan, I got some amazing pictures down there too!

Whilst in Kingston, Jamaica, I wanted to visit Trenchtown but no one would take me!?!?

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others the way you want to be treated.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting and surfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I guess I've been couchsurfing my entire adult life and not actually knowing it?! LOL

Staying with friends of friends in foreign places, and yes sleeping on the couch or a futon or whatever.

I officially hosted through CS only three times and each experience was quite rewarding. Being apart of making someone's travel experience more pleasant or exciting is an awesome feeling for me.
