Hello, my name is Manuel but my friends call me Manolo, I like to travel to new places, know about their culture, traditions and gastronomy. I consider myself organized, mature and extroverted person who likes outdoor activities such as trekking or interaction with animals and children. I am very active, my passions are extreme sports, like skating or surfing but I also like to run or play any sport. I'm a music lover, music is one of my favorite hobbies, I currently play the saxophone and a some jarana and I really enjoy live music.

I've lived in the United States so my English level is good, I also lived in Chile for a while.

I am an industrial and systems engineer, I used to work for a company in the technical service area and I'm currently working as a internal auditor.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm in couch surfing because I am interested in traveling to new places and being able to see them from the view of a local because when you are a regular tourist you do not see things that only locals see and the cultural exchange is less
