Hi, I am Ivan Mauricio. I enjoy traveling a lot, most of my money goes into that, and when I’m not traveling I love to host people as it makes me feel a bit like traveling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Coming back to CS after a years long hiatus, as I will soon start a new long trip and I believe in seeing places from a local perspective. I also enjoy showing around my favorite places.

Music, Movies, and Books

I always loved The Catcher in the Rye. I absolutely love the fact that I finished it for the 10th time while I was sitting in Central Park, totally by accident. I searched then for a Carrousel there.

I like a lot of different music, all depends on the space. I can enjoy a punk concert, dance reggaeton or an intense techno party.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I helped people in Greece not to drown. I rode the golden circle in north Vietnam on a bike and was amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to open a beer bottle with a lot of stuff. Also basic salsa. Spanish is also on the menu.
