Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love hosting new CouchSurfers. Everyone is so different and has interesting stories to tell! If I have a big break from school, I would love to CouchSurf all over the world!
I mostly host, since I haven't been able to travel much. I did couchsurf in Peru and my CS hosts were amazing!!! Yo amo Peru!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used to live in Las Cruces, but not a lot of CouchSurfers come by. When I moved to Albuquerque, I got so many surfers and their pets request, which was awesome. It is great to get to meet people and listen to their stories. I love to be a host of my town and I want my guests to really enjoy Albuquerque community and New Mexico as a whole.
I stayed with a few hosts during my trip to Peru. They were amazing hosts and I got to enjoy their culture and experienced CS in other country.

Music, Movies, and Books

My last roommate had a TV and we watched Arrow, Flash, Once Upon a Time, Constantine, Supernatural, Modern Family, and Blacklist. Now, I read martial art light novels for fun. I listen to random music and have no preferences except I don't enjoy loud music. Movies are good if I just want to relax, but no scary movies!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Touching people lives through healing, caring, listening and volunteering.

Traveling to different places and learning about myself, friends, and all the people I met along the way.

I just fixed my refrigerator by replacing the relay, overload, and capacitor from watching Youtube! Save about $800!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy fixing houses and renting them out. I would love to learn how to do carpentry and welding.I've done some meditation and can point some basic steps and which methods have worked for me. I have worked in a family Thai restaurant since I was 9, so I can cook most Thai dishes, some Japanese food, a few Italian dishes, and lots of makeup dishes.One thing I really need to learn is sewing...don't know how and I got a lot of things that need to be fixed.

Cambodia, Canada, China, Costa Rica, France, Guatemala, Honduras, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Mexico, Netherlands, Panama, Peru, Singapore, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom, Vatican City State
