CURRENT MISSION

To Learn, To Grow, and To Live!

ABOUT ME

I love the outdoors (snowboarding, camping, hiking, climbing, mtn biking, etc.), enjoy traveling, music, and much of the arts. I am an active person who doesn't enjoy sitting around much and would love to have some more cultural experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

I think learning, experiencing, and thinking make my world go round. Whether it be outdoors, from a book, traveling, or just good conversation, the opportunity for personal and spiritual growth is always present.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a number of friends who use couchsurfing (and have met many more through it!), but I enjoy hosting and look forward to surfing whenever I travel.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love learning about new cultures and viewpoints from the various surfers I have hosted!

Intereses

I enjoy the outdoors and the activities that come with it, reading, music, adventure, traveling, conversation, philosophy (especially Eastern Philosophy these days), but overall my interest is life.

Algo increíble que he hecho

My time spent in Jackson Hole, Wyoming has changed my life profoundly and positively. Studying abroad in Sevilla and traveling from Colombia to Chile to Argentina to Brazil for the World Cup were also great experiences which have led me to grow and change as a person.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

A pack is like life. You have to A) Decide what you want in your pack, B) Decide if you are willing to carry it, and C) Accept what you have put in your pack and trudge on.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I believe strongly in the idea of the traveler as an ambassador and I think I can share the goodwill and positive side of the US culture with others. The more positive interactions and understanding we create, the greater chance for a cooperative, global community!
