ABOUT ME

My name is Hilton, I'm from Talcahuano, Chile. I'm a 35 years old backpacker that wants to help people, share stories, eat new kind of food and travel around the world.

I started a new travel blog on 2014 called Apuesta Por la Ruta (apuestaporlaruta.cl) where I've been writing my adventures of traveling in America. Awesome experience and I would like to make this way of living, my entire life

Just ask anything, I'm glad to help the way I can. And of course, my house is your house if you want to stay and know a little more about this beautiful city and country. Regards!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I want to travel while I'm not traveling. So helping people doing the same is the best way to make it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most important thing is to make everything with love. I have followed my fútbol team to the entire Chile and 3 other countries. I also was invited to participate in a NBA game where I met the team's owner and the star of the team. I had the chance to talk with the last yagan indigenous that speak the languaje in Puerto Williams, Cristina Calderón.

Teach, Learn, Share

The world is a nice place, not the one that the news are trying to sell you. There's kind, helpful, honest people making this place a better one.

I'm sharing that, the possibility to meet this people, share experiences and continue building confidence and trust in this world.
