Hi everyone, I’m Miguel from Costa Rica. I am a researcher in environmental law and a travel and backpacking enthusiast. I am very interested in intercultural exchange, I was an exchange student when I was younger and I have done volunteering work in non-profit organizations both in my country and abroad. My hobbies include hiking, cooking, running and all kinds of outdoor or cultural activities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am interested in making new friends with whom to discover new places when I travel and to show my city to new friends.
