26 year old Salvadoran, raised in LA, and lived in Vietnam for the last 6 years. I’m more used to living a sedentary lifestyle but now I’m getting some courage to embark on some adventures.

I became a teacher and I’ve loved teaching English, Spanish, Coding and being a mentor to kids in boot camps we ran in Vietnam.

I lived in rural Vietnam and most recently Hanoi where I met lots of lovely people from all over the world and started dancing Blues and Lindyhop!

I also used to work cooking the Salvadoran traditional food for my embassy’s events in Hanoi. And I used to cook for everyone in the monastery when I lived in one so let me cook something for you!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would love to travel all over Vietnam and maybe south east Asia and connect with other travelers and locals and exchange ideas, stories and knowledge.
