I want to go where I haven't gone before and to go after my dreams! I am adventurous, sweet-natured and open to new things. I like to challenge myself. My favorite saying is this paraphrase of George Herbert Mead: Challenge your self concept!

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I am couchsurfing because I have been a guest and also hosted, it's super fun to meet new people. Get to know either locals or in the hosting side, get to know someone else's story of why they are traveling. Everyone has a story and that's my favorite bit of everything.
Music, Movies, and Books
I love Disney movies, Lord of the Rings, J.J. Abrams Star Trek reboot, Belle de Jour, Sherlock (with Benedict Cumberbatch, ok?!) As for books, A Song of Ice and Fire series... It's my obsession. I also like Frankenstein, Importance of Being Earnest, Bhagavad-Gita, Neverwhere, Gifts of Imperfection.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Building a school in Dominican Republic when I was in high school was one of my prouder moments. Also jumping off a cliff into the sea. But that was because I conquered my fear for about 15 minutes (I did it twice) and then somehow I still am afraid of heights!
My Interests
Painting, wine, crafting, going dancing, doing yoga, writing and just a good ole Netflix marathon. I like to eat... Correction, I loooove eating!
