Hi, I'm a young student wandering and traveling throughout Europe and Latin America and if your reading this its probably because I'm hoping to find a place to stay near you! Ive been living and traveling abroad for many years now and only came to couch surfing recently but am hoping that it will enable me to continue to see the wonders this world offers. As I'm also a bit of a experience hunter I'm always looking for new people to share both old and new experiences with i also see couch surfing as a great opportunity to meet and compare "life notes" with people i might never otherwise meet! I'm also a believer in basic internet privacy (hence the lack of much info here) but don't hesitate to send me any questions!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling has always been a deeply instructive and enlightening experience for me and nothing has been more interesting then meeting and hearing the stories of those i have encountered along my road and my hope is to use couch surfing to continue to meet as many as i can to both learn and live vicariously as well as give whatever I can. Why live only my own life when there just many fascinating people to meet and stories to be told.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too hard- there are too many great movies and books out there to choose one. My tastes in music is pretty varied so as long as your not into heavy death metal we'll be good.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While i was living on Isabella island in Ecuador i got the chance to participate in a caminata de poder across the island lead by one of the local shamans and several of the local artists. The walk lasted over 12 hours and was one of the most transformative experiences i've ever had. While i wont give away the whole story, my best memory from that walk was it ending on the top of one of the volcanoes at midnight with nothing but the light of two hemispheres un-obstructed stars to guide us- an overall amazing time.

Teach, Learn, Share

What i said in why I'm on couch surfing. I want to learn all i can from those willing to teach, be it languages, experiences, skills, or even just notes on the greater meaning of life. Living nomadically means i cant offer to host anyone yet but when i do i hope to have the experiences of many couch surfers to share.

What I Can Share with Hosts

While i don't have much to offer, the little i do have - my stories, experiences, and linguistic abilities- i hope to share with my hosts. I'm always interested in swapping stories or having a good discussion but jsut as down to simply share tastes in music and thoughts on almost any topic. And for those looking for something a little more concrete I am always happy to lend my skills as a expirienced translator/interpreter to help my hosts!
