Hi!

I'm an adventurer. Since I was a kid, I have always liked to experience new things. I'm into extreme sports and all kinds of crazy stuff. I know what being an amateur globetrotter is about. It was at this time that I decided to take my bike and test my limits. I managed to cross half of my mother country, Ecuador. Of course, there were mountains, so I did a little hitchhiking. I am still young, currently 24 years old. I want to begin my wandering experience. I love discovering new places and sharing my culture with locals. I also love to meet people and learn about their culture. While I'm not traveling, I study astrophysics, and my dream is to become an astronaut. Also, my favourite places are the beaches.

I had the opportunity to be hosted by beautiful people around the world, and I want to offer my guests the same experience, a place where they can feel at home.

¡Hola!

Soy un aventurero. Desde que era niño, siempre me ha gustado experimentar cosas nuevas. Me gustan los deportes extremos y todo tipo de locuras. Sé lo que es ser un trotamundos aficionado. Fue entonces cuando decidí coger mi bicicleta y poner a prueba mis límites. Conseguí cruzar la mitad de mi país natal, Ecuador. Por supuesto, había montañas, así que hice un poco de autostop. Todavía soy joven, actualmente tengo 24 años. Quiero comenzar mi experiencia de mochilero. Me encanta descubrir nuevos lugares y compartir mi cultura con los locales. También me encanta conocer gente y aprender sobre su cultura. Mientras no viajo, estudio astrofísica y mi sueño es ser astronauta. Además, mis lugares favoritos son las playas.

He tenido la oportunidad de ser hospedado por gente increíble alrededor del mundo, y quiero ofrecer a mis huéspedes la misma experiencia, un lugar donde puedan sentirse como en casa.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people and explore new places. The real beauty of the world is hidden in those places that are only known by the locals. I've seen amazing places in my life that are not on a map, and also the best moments I've lived can't be bought.

Interests

I think the meaning of life is to be happy, and the happiness is in all the experiences we have. It's worth nothing to stay in some place and live in isolation. The universe is a massive place, and the earth is big enough to have a million experiences. It doesn't matter what you like or what you can do if you don't share it with people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I can say I'm a rock guy. The concerts I've been to have been mainly rock or metal. I love to be in a crowd and mosh around. I'm not closed to that, and though I've always considered myself an open person, I always find beauty, even in the weirdest experiences. I'm not that much into literature, not because I don't like it, but because I spend all my reading time on math, physics, chemistry, etc., everything to become a scientist in astrophysics and then become an astronaut. I love movies. I'm the guy who never gets bored while watching a film. Not so into musicals, though. I prefer action, but most importantly, to experience the action myself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've traveled half of Ecuador on a bike. It was the most enriched experience I've ever had. Not only did I test my limits, but I found myself in the process. That's who I am and that's only the beginning. I have plans to cross all of South America one day.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Spanish and English. I can also give you guitar lessons or even some deep physics conversations. I want to know about the different cultures in our planet. I want to share experiences; all I know and all that I could know.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer an interesting friendship. I'm a friendly guy. I have a lot of experience to share, and I'm able to teach some amazing things. I've always said that I have a lot to offer, and the only thing I need is someone who wants to receive it.
