Disclaimer:
. If you are just looking for a free hotel and/or free food (I had a few guest that I had to fed not because they were amazing and I wanted to be nice, but because the were cheap and wouldn't even buy their own food) this is not the place for you.

. I have a dog who sheds a lot and is extremely friendly. If you dislike dogs (how can someone dislike dogs? what's wrong with some humans?) also: this is not the place for you (I had a guest who kicked my dog cause she was being too friendly. For god sake I couldn't believe my eyes)

. I believe Couchsurfing is a community to share, help each other and meet people all around the world. Definitively not a place just to "take".

CURRENT MISSION

Recover my life.
Enjoy life to the fullest.
Help people and animals.

ABOUT ME

I love to travel. Music. Sports. Laughing and meeting interesting people!

In 2009 at the age of 26 I suddenly lost my speech, mobility and was misdiagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.

I researched on my own and find out that the diagnosis was wrong.

I had Lyme disease. I continue searching to find the correct treatment and people that can help me... I did!

My journey to get my life back took me to the US.
I'm currently living in Keller working everyday on my health.

I have already went from a wheelchair... to a walker... to a cane... to... nothing!

My speech is getting faster and faster... I was even able to work again and live on my own.

The prognosis is to get 100% better, as I like to say: Get even better than before! Be able to run. Play the guitar and many many more things.

Can't wait to get there!

Life is only one (sounds as a cliché. I know) I want to live it to the fullest and help as much people as possible. No matter if they have something similar or any other problem.
No matter the age. Sex. Ethnic. Religion... every life matters!

Same thing applies to animals!
A few years ago I adopted a dog "Fiona". Whom I love with all my heart.
She is the funniest and sweetest creature in the whole world.

There's not a single day that she doesn't make me smile.

She comes everywhere with me. And has been by my side at all times. Good and bad.

So I try to give back to her as much as I can. Dogs are just amazing!

Been now able to take her to short walks makes me so happy! ... until we are able to run together!

And hey why dogs and not Cows/Pigs/Other animals?
I quit eating animals and dairy and not only I feel much better but I'm also getting better much faster!

Add the word Popote in the request so I'll now you read this bio.

In short: I want to share the happiness and offer a couch to anyone who needs a place where ever in the world I'm living!
