I'm an anthropology graduate student doing fieldwork. I'm of Guatemalan ancestry although I was born and raised in Chicago. I love traveling, coffee, good conversations, and good beer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Danced to Apache/Jump on it in front of a huge crowd of people: https://youtu.be/eT5ELG-ZzFg

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a little Spanish, love to learn new
dishes, and can share my Guatemalan-American culture

What I Can Share with Hosts

I currently tend to work in coffee shops and from home—and therefore have a flexible schedule. For instance, I can potentially pick you up at a bus station or the airport and show you a few places around town.
