About Me

I been traveling around the world since 2015 I always heard so many crazy stories about Couchsurfing but the time has come to experience it with my own eyes ..sorry im new at this …👇🏼
South American raised in the states and living abroad
Let me start by saying this …
in the Quechua language (LANGUAGE OF THE INKA EMPIRE) there is no such word as goodbye. And the closest thing to say is “Tupananchiskama”, which means “until we meet again”.
Everything in life is relative is such a beautiful world out there to no wonder what’s out there ,once I sold everything and never look back traveling the world conquer my fears and interact with beautiful strangers open my mind to understand that as politics,borders and religion can separate us,at the core we all the same…
I strongly believe that if we listen to each other and try to understand each other’s story we can create a better world and that’s why I’d like to know locals when I travel and not only see the historical land marks,buildings or museums, but understand the people living in every single city I been to. I always wanted to be an anthropologist but changed it to IT …(computer science) I really enjoy sightseeing and admire what’s in front of me but the thing I like even more is “observing people ”. It’s fascinated how people in different countries live their lives and I really like to spend time observing then being themselves. At one point I had a hostel a bar and two restaurant in South America and south east Asia so SOCIAL is my last name but time by ourselves is always important!
