ABOUT ME

I'm a software specialist from the United States and I currently live in Chicago. I enjoy traveling to new places and learning about new cultures and languages from people from all over. Hablo Español, Je parle Français, Falo Portugues

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Making new friends and experiencing new cultures, like most couchsurfers :). I hope to host visitors from many different places so that they can experience this beautiful city. I also hope to make new friends as I travel of course.

Interests

I love languages, travel, and learning about many different cultures throughout the world. I especially enjoy snowboarding in different regions and on different mountains. In 2011 I lived and worked at a ski resort in New Zealand which was a wonderful experience. I lived in France from 2015-2017, and I spent 1 year traveling in Latin America in 2018. I also enjoy all kinds of music. I like to have drinks and go out with friends, and though I'm not a good dancer, I still love it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Attended the 2014 World Cup in Brazil! What an amazing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning languages. I spend a lot of time helping people with their English and in exchange they help me to learn some of their language. Language is culture, for me there is no better way to learn about a culture than to learn its language

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to share my experiences and listen to other people tell me about their experiences. I can help you practice your English, I also play guitar and can teach you some songs if you like.
