Born and raised in Miami and Tampa, my family is from Ecuador, although most of my immediate family is in Miami as well. I work 5 days a week, travel often and enjoy training/running/HIIT/Kickboxing, so this pretty much makes up my day to day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To host a new generation of travelers that are doing so with a very limited budget and have a genuine interest in human interaction and learning/sharing with others.

**NOTE** I ONLY want to host tourists, not people who want to see what living in Miami is like, who are considering moving to Miami, who live locally, nothing of the sort. TOURISTS only, and preferably foreign tourists.

Teach, Learn, Share

It’s a bit of a cliché, but “when you are on the right path, things will start happening”. I am a living/breathing testament to this.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Im a fun, well traveled, smart guy. My range of conversation is very open! I very much enjoy chatting with new people, getting to know what they are about. I am clean, courteous and very mindful of others. Im open to anything! I dont really party though, that stage of my life is way over.I can definitely go out to a bar or 2, have a beer or 2, but I like being home by midnight as I wake up early every day.
