About Me

ABOUT ME

Serious Version: Late twenties guy planning on getting out of the 9 to 5 deal by using my knowledge and network to build strong relationships and systems that others can benefit from.

Fun Version: Late twenties guy wanting to have as much fun as possible with new friends by discovering every little fun place in Miami or place a visit.

PHILOSOPHY

Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I recently joined a Surf Rescue and Environmental group and I think is one of the best decisions I have ever made.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I think it's fascinating how you can learn so much from a person that was a stranger to you a couple of hours before. The CS environment promotes this kind of dynamic where sharing great moments with new people in new places is part of the norm.

Interests

Recently new found love for water sports. Traveling and networking is not only fun but is necessary in this globalized era. Love meeting new cultures, I think is one of the most efficient ways of learning and growing as a person.
