About Me

My little guesthouse is also my home. I moved here a little over a year ago, and desided to turn the house into a home also for travelers who need a place to stay. If you are looking for an authentic experience, this is the place for you. My house is like any other house in Minca, so when you live here you live like the locals.

My grandfather built this house a long time ago, but he never finished it.

My family moved away to another city because of the situation in Minca at the time, and some locals rented the house at a cheep price for some years.

After living in the states for nine years, I started thinking about this house. I called around asking my family what they wanted to do with it. No one seemed interrested in keeping it, so I said I was interrested.

The difference between my place and other places to stay in Minca, is that my place is not a hostel. It is a home that we can share together. If you have any questions about Minca's history or this house's history I will be happy to tell you what I know.

Welcome!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on here mostly for a cultural exchange and eat meals from other countries that I'm probably never going to visit. So basically I'm willing to offer accommodation if you provide meals and drinks as part of the cultural exchange.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My grandfather was very smart to have built this house, so I decided to renovate it to live and share.

Teach, Learn, Share

I share accommodation. I keep the pace functional and organized, which requires organization and daily manual labor. In exchange for space, cultural exchange, and accommodation I expect surfers to explain on their request what they are willing to provide in return as for the exchange; Food, drinks, cooking.

What I Can Share with Hosts

This would be a great question for a couchsurfing traveler to ask themselves before writing a request to stay with a local... I see Couch surfing as a social exchange tool in which you share something with the understanding that hosts are sharing their space and basic resources. Profiles requesting stay that do not have this completed thoughtfully are less likely to get the request accepted.
