CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

My time in Austin mostly spent swimming, cooking with friends, going out to see live music, volunteering and/or exploring new restaurants.

I love Austin and am happy to share what I've learned in 9 years here.

PHILOSOPHY

Live in Peace. - Enjoy life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm just getting started but I'm happy to host (love meeting new people) and looking forward to trying CS out when I'm in Argentina.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted bands during South by Southwest music festival but that's about it as far as people I did not know before they stayed with me.

They were called the carsick cars from Beijing and it was fun to have them stay at the house for a bit.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you consider yourself a foodie, I'll be able to point you to some of Austin's best/coolest restaurants whether that means a great trailer or a hip gastropub.

I'm also a decent cook and fairly knowledgeable about nutrition.

And finally, if you like to swim, I try to check out every swimming hole, pool, etc. that I can find and I'm happy to share my thoughts on the best places. - Open water is my favorite.
