Hey there! I’m Edwin Betancur, a 32-year-old Software Engineer from Spartanburg, South Carolina. I’m passionate about travel, music, martial arts, archery, software development, reading, self-development, nutrition, exercise, vloging, content creation, entrepreneurship, online coaching, cinematography and I believe the best way to truly experience a place is through the people who call it home.

I’m a easygoing, respectful, curious, passionate person who loves meeting people from different walks of life. Whether it’s swapping travel stories, learning about local customs, or just sharing a good meal and conversation, I’m all about meaningful connections.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

For me, traveling isn’t just about ticking places off a list — it’s about immersing myself in new cultures and making authentic friendships along the way. I enjoy both hosting and being a guest, and I see Couchsurfing as a beautiful way to build a global community.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Longest trip that I ever done was drive across 7 states in 4 days. And experienced bizarre shifts in weather patterns along the way; from cold wintery forestry wonderlands, to low foggy blizzard lightning storms to scorching blazing hot deserted weather.

教，学，和分享

I come from a colombian background although I was born in the states, I've learned to become fluent in Spanish by increasing my vocabulary along the way. So if you are into learning Spanish than I'm your guy.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can share some drumming basics, cook up a Southern-style breakfast, or recommend underrated spots for hiking waterfalls in North Carolina. Always down for good conversation and a laugh.
