Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started to travel a little more in the past few years and ran with some body that introduced me with the advantages of couchsurfing, write now i concider myself more as a traveler, thats the reason i can not accommodate no body in my home now, but when i have a stable house to live i will be happy to do so, i am currently in Los Angeles CA in the USA.

Interests

i can say that my first interest are the beach and being near the ocean and outdoor activities, i like sailing and i come from a family of swimmers, recently I've been in to triathlons and made to some events in Los Angeles area, so that means that i also like to do some biking and running hahahaha. I'm also a dentist of profession and artist from passion, love to do oil paintings.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently i went to camping in a total virgen beach in the Dominican Republic thats completely cast away from the isle and the only acces to the beach is from boat, its awesome to spend the night just bathing in the beach looking at the night sky.
