My name is Marcos and I'm a travel bug from Puerto Rico.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to get in contact with people that enjoy traveling as much as I do and/or enjoy meeting people from different cultures. This website was recommended to me by a friend!

Interests

My main interests are sports and good food. Whenever I travel someplace I'll try to attend a sporting event because not only do I enjoy it but it's a great chance to be around a large crowd of locals. I also enjoy themed restaurants and food that's worth taking a picture of.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a variety of music and it all depends on my mood and time of the day. If I'm heading out to a bar I'll listen to electronic music but if I'm doing a road trip around my island I'll listen to salsa/merengue. I like pretty much everything. I prefer thriller/scary movies and enjoy self-development books and autobiographies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was catapulted 400 feet into the air within 5 seconds at a sling shot in Florida. That was the most heart pounding experience of my life!

Also, I attended Super Bowl XLIX and all the festivities around the big event! That was one of the top three things in my life bucket list and I'm thrilled to have completed it before age 25!

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you host me, I'll be a person who will respect and adjust to your way of living and your rules. I'll be happy to cook you something from my island (if we find the ingredients) and I can share past experiences and life lessons with you.

I can bring whoever visits the San Juan area some company. I can meet up for a coffee, a meal or a drink! I have a decent knowledge of the city and can definitely show you the best way to get the most out of the island. I can't offer accommodation at the moment but I can give you transportation!
