UPDATE: I get so many requests to stay in Tamarindo so PLEASE READ BEFORE SENDING A REQUEST

1. My house is not a hotel, if you request to stay and don't mention you would like to connect with me somehow, I would most likely not accept you. I don't like people who are just looking for a place to stay, that is not what constitutes the escense of Couchsurfing, for that scenario you're better off in a hostel.
2. I'm currently accepting only solo travelers.
3. If you don't read my profile and don't include something that has caught your attention about me, I will not accept you.
4. I don't accept long term requests (more than a week) unless you're super special and we connect.
5. No tabbaco smokers

ABOUT ME

Hola! I am from Costa Rica, I live in the beautiful pacific coast. I'm a barista and roaster of specialty coffee and I have my own coffee shop in Tamarindo.

I also love music very much, I'm a singer and guitar player and I have my own band. I also like other forms of arts, like cinema and video games. I'm also a nature boy.

I like both Europe and Latin America. I travelled in Europe for 4 years and each place I went was looking to meet new people, cultures and stories.

If you are in Costa Rica, and if I have the chance, I will be happy to host you and if you can host me as well I promise a nice and polite company and traveler's talks. I consider myself very open and friendly, it's in my latino personality, let's be friends :)

Saludos!
Esteban

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, have new experiences and travel a lot!

Interests

I'm a self taught musician and my dream is to dedicate to music altogether someday.

I love movies and books. I also like videogames and animations.

I also like to read history and sci-fi books, watching old illustrations, drawing every once in a while and writing.
