I'm a Data Scientist currently working at a consulting Firm. I love to hang out with family, friends, and I love to either party now and then, salsa dancing, go to comedy clubs, bars, cafés, concerts, or even just stay in to watch a movie. Even though I have lived in one of the biggest cities in the world the last 14 years, I like to go out into nature as well. My last hike was up a volcano in El Salvador which was tough but I like to do those kinds of activities now and then as I'm not athletic but I try to do new things a few times a year. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hiked up the volcano in Santa Ana, El Salvador during the summer - the locals told me it's a very tough hike and even though it was rough and I fell arriving to the top, I made it and it gave me tons of brownie points with my Salvadorean friends! xD
