Overview
About Me
I'm a teacher by trade, a linguist at heart, a traveller by nature.
I practise martial arts, study different languages, draw portraits, talk with animals, walk everywhere, dance Tango and Bachata. I talk to strangers, and hug good people. I am mestizo and I'm very proud of that fact. I've moved around every 3 years since I was born. I try my best for the people around me without any expectation for return.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Like to meet new people and no better way to know a place than to know it's people.
