I am a well-rounded, caring, empathetic, open minded, professional guy who is very fortunate to have great health, a loving family, and a career. I am low-key, non-drama and described by many as an old soul. I love to pursue new experiences and connections. People inspire me. I am honest, tidy, respectful, ethical and can carry a conversation. I believe in leadership and giving everyone the space needed to feel comfortable to express and be themselves. I absolutely love people, food, coffee, pastries, the beach and long walks on cobble stoned streets. I am a firm believer of quid pro quo and would gladly host you if possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Since I travel alone, it would be great to meet people in cities to do amazing things with such as: explore neighborhoods, buildings, museums, landmarks, eat at the local places, wander the streets and share a few laughs over a pint (or 2) of beer (or wine) meanwhile we enjoy each other's company. Anyone up for dancing, exercising or doing thrill seeking events? Sign me up! :)

Interests

I grew up Catholic and have a solid moral foundation, but at this point in life I do what is right and not necessarily what religion tells me what is right/wrong. It has taken a while, but I am now more comfortable in my own skin and can accept the fact that my sexuality is fluid. I do not like labels and live my life as to the best of my ability without letting anything, let alone my sexuality define me. Masculine, caring guy here who wants to connect with some of the good people of the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have eclectic music tastes, but I tend to side with country, Jazz and Reggaeton more often than not as it makes me feel happy. I also like R&B as well as top 40's. For movies, I like sci-fi, drama, comedies, international, documentary, tv series (Love Game of Thrones!). For books, I enjoy coming of age stories as well as fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have mentored and coached underserved youth.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Spanish and English. I can also share business tips, help develop a business, take photographs, share food, drinks, my company, and good conversation. I would love to learn how to play the guitar and/or to speak another language.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Beer, food, dancing, knowledge, laughs and a good time.
