Overview
About Me
👋 Hi, I’m Kenny!
I’m originally from the U.S. and currently splitting time between Puerto Rico, Florida, and Texas. I serve in the U.S. Army and also work on personal projects like real estate and tech, so I’m always on the move.
🌍 Traveling is one of my biggest passions. I love meeting new people, learning about local cultures, and sharing stories over good food or coffee. I speak English and Spanish (and I’m learning some Italian for my next trip 🇮🇹).
🏕 I enjoy outdoor adventures, exploring new cities, and discovering hidden local spots more than touristy areas. I value respect, good conversation, and building genuine connections.
🐶 Fun fact: I have a dog named Apollo in Miami, FL.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I believe the best way to experience a place is through the people who live there. Hotels are fine, but they don’t give you the same authentic feel of a city or culture. Couchsurfing lets me connect with locals, share stories, and see things I’d never discover on my own.
I’m also a big believer in cultural exchange, whether it’s practicing languages, swapping travel tips, or just having good conversations. For me, Couchsurfing isn’t just about a free place to stay, it’s about creating friendships and memories around the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share
I love to dance salsa and teach other to dance salsa. I can teach Spanish or English basics, share leadership and fitness tips from my Army background, and show how to cook some easy Puerto Rican meals. love learning about local cultures, hidden spots in your city, new recipes, and picking up languages (right now I’m learning Italian 🇮🇹). I can share stories from my travels and military experiences, my passion for fitness and personal growth, and of course good conversation over food, music, or a walk around the city.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Cultural Exchange – I can share my Puerto Rican and American background, teach some Spanish or English, and even help you practice conversational Italian if you’re interested.
Cooking & Food – I love cooking simple, hearty meals and can share some Puerto Rican flavors or military-style “field hacks” for quick meals.
Stories & Experiences – From serving in the Army to traveling around the U.S. and abroad, I’ve got plenty of stories about leadership, resilience, and funny adventures along the way.
Learning & Skills – I’m into fitness, personal development, and technology, so I can share workout routines, help with basic tech troubleshooting, or even give tips on organization/leadership.
