Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING We surfed in so many couches when we traveled around the world and meeting local people made the difference in our trip. Before our trip, we only hosted one time, but are looking forward to hosting again! COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE We enjoyed amazing couchsurfing experiences during our trip from the fall of 2012 to the fall of 2016. We enjoy meeting and conversing with other travelers and local people eveywhere we go. Couchsurfing made a difference in our trip around the world because it is the best way of learning about the culture of the places we visit and make amazing friends!
Music, Movies, and Books
We enjoy all kinds of music. Currently traveling with some Jazz, Bosanova, Salsa, Rock in Spanish, etc... We love reading. Sal is always following the news. Gisela prefers reading fiction literature in Spanish.

Teach, Learn, Share
We can share travel stories, laughs, and quality time. We speak English and Spanish fluently so we can practice these languages with our hosts if they are interested. We are always willing to learn as much as possible from other cultures and life experiences.
What I Can Share With Hosts
We can offer laughs, stories, respect, quality time, friendship, and hopefully some delicious meals.
