About Me

My name is Forrest. I was born and raised in South Carolina, US. I graduated from Clemson Universiry and love American Football and all things about the Clemson Tigers. I love to travel, learn, meet new people. I live in Quito where I work. I have had one semester studying and living in Cordoba, Argentina and loved every minute of it. I also lived for a summer in Costa Rica interning and experienced the #puravida. I am very outgoing and can easily connect with people. I love people, the outdoors, cultures, food, music, dance and life.

Mi nombre es Forrest, si como "Forrest Gump." Vivo en Quito donde trabajo. Viví en Cordoba Argentina por un programa de intercambio y me encanta la cultura, el pais, y la gente allá. También viví en San Jose Costa Rica por un verano donde descubrí la #puravida. Me encanta viajar y conocer otros lugares, personas, culturas, y maneras de vivir.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to get to know others where I travel and at home. I want a local/authentic experience when I travel and make the connection humans need to make to better understand one another. I always have had the best time traveling when I feel like I am getting the real experience; you learn a lot more that way.

Quiero conocer otro gente, culturas etc en mis viajes y en mi casa. Quiero experiences locales y auténticos cuando viajo para que hago la conexión humana entre nosotros.
