CURRENT MISSION

I wish to learn at least 2 new languages, I am already in the process of learning French. I wish to connect with different people. I am working really hard to finish my BS in Celular and Molecular Biology. I hope to leave Puerto Rico in 2 years.

ABOUT ME

I am a really friendly and curious person. I love to listen and learn about everything around me. I love to make people laugh and to laugh with them. I am generally easygoing, easy to talk to, and I love to have fun. My friends would say I am a very loyal and loving person. I have a slightly off sense of humor, but I also laugh at everything. I talk a lot and I love to eat and sleep. I get along with just about anyone.

PHILOSOPHY

Though it may sound overused...I am a firm believer in seizing the moment. I truly believe that we have to experience life at its fullest and take in everything positive that is has to offer. We should learn from our surroundings and live every day full of energy and passion. We shouldn't put off things for later when they are an ever-present possibility.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have just started but mostly hosting and meeting people!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to Couchsurfing!

Interests

I love to travel, read, listen to music, and meet new people. These are my absolute favorite ways to spend my time. I enjoy learning about other cultures in an engaging manner. I hate doing cliché-tourist things when I travel. I firmly believe in living the moment and enjoying every single breath you take. I am not a very political person. I do not like superficial people and I loathe people who pretend to be something they are not.
