About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Teach Spanish and standardized testing to middle-to-high school students. I also book local bands at local music venues here in Asheville, NC.

ABOUT ME

I love love love to travel, and I can't get enough of it. I would love to see all of Latin America some day. I adore living in Asheville, NC. Everything about this town thrills me. The food, the craft beer, the environment, the people...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would love to offer people an affordable place to stay so they can enjoy this town that I love so dearly. I hope that I can also couch surf with others and travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a movie buff. I love weird, off-the-wall and awkward movies. Wes Anderson is a fave director. As far as books go, I am a Chuck Palahniuk, Hunter S. Thompson, Kurt Vonnegut and Tom Robbins fan. I love music and attending live shows. I love electronic music (not many DJs, but some), indie, folk, bluegrass... The best show I have seen this year (2017) was Khruangbin at the Mothlight in Asheville.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

With every new experience, I feel that I have added a new amazing feat. It is hard for me to pick just one. I think crossing the Spain/France border on foot was a pretty cool experience though. Pais Vasco is really cool!
