Expert mistake-maker Perpetual self-educator Peanut butter connoisseur I love trying new things, and I have way too many interests. Chances are, we probably share a few hobbies. I live a fairly active lifestyle. When I visit new places, I often prefer to walk around town rather than drive or rely on public transportation.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
to meet cool people, see new places, and avoid being a consumer :)
Música, películas y libros
When it comes to films and books, I like documentaries, science fiction, fantasy, and historical fiction. Some of my favorite authors include Bill Bryson, Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchet, and George Orwell. With music, the only thing I really don't like is top 40. I studied music in college and can bring myself to appreciate nearly anything.

Enseña, aprende, comparte
Teaching: I'm a former ESL teacher, so I can give you pointers on your English. Beyond that, I currently work as a software engineer, so I could teach you some coding basics or give some pointers if you're currently working on a project. I also know a bit about music, culture, and cooking. Learning: everything! Sharing: friendship :)

Mis intereses
I'm interested in nearly everything. Cooking, hiking, and languages have always been important to me.
