Overview
About Me
Hi there CS friends!
I'm a chilled, positive and friendly guy from Costa Rica. Now living in Amsterdam, moved to EU in 2012.
Traveling is one of my biggest passions, and love meeting new people.
**From Dec24 up until Summer25 I won't be able host in Amsterdam**
**If you are requesting me to host you in Amsterdam, please read my Home section**
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Making new connections and trying to see how locals live when I'm abroad... or share tips with travelers visiting The Netherlands/Costa Rica. I appreciate the "local touch" more than the traditional touristic approach.
Interests
Travel, meeting new people, reading, (independent)films, cooking, checking new cafes and hidden little gems, roadtrips, outdoor activities, yoga, pranayama, meditation, philosophical conversations, all cultural and historical related stuff... Up to try anything new

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
-Hitchhiking trip to Tikal, Mayan ruins in Guatemala.
-Staying with some indigenous community, participating in their daily activities.
-Driving and camping - sleeping in a van along the Canary Islands, in the Nordics each summer the past years and big part of 2024 i have been on the road too.
-Backpacking in Iran - one of my favorite places ever.
-Volunteer work - Worked with refugees, gave language classes to children in rural communities, empowered local businesses in LATAM, support to depressed elderly in NL - Helping and engaging with people is in my core.
