Enjoying life

ABOUT ME

I was born in Cozumel, Mexico (in the Caribbean) Lived in Salt Lake City Utah during 18 years. In Santa Barbara, California
Work at eBay servicing eBay partners providing trust and safety support and enforcing eBay listings practices and policy.
I enjoy meeting people from all backgrounds and sharing ideas.

PHILOSOPHY

Love and respect are the building blocks of community. Independence is to our minds the affirmation of real community, real conversation, and the real exchange of value in the form of culture, love and ideas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just joined the CS' community as a suggestion from my brother. We have hosted wonderful people in our home in Cozumel. And we have also been hosted by great folks. Therefore, being a part of this community makes sense.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have spent many nights on couches of friends and relatives around the world. And also have had the joy of hosting wonderful people. And now want to be a part of this community

Interests

We run a Specialty Coffee business located in Cozumel. It is a coop that employees several people and gives them access to a competitive salary. We are very proud to be the top selling item in DUTY FREE shops in the Mexican Caribbean and Puerto Vallarta and Cabo San Lucas. And we are looking to partner with a local roaster in Southern California. Someone who shares our vision of fair trade and passion about quality and handmade goods.
