I'm an artist living in Marfa, TX. I’ve been in Texas for about 7 months since deciding to leave Chicago last year. My car broke down in the area en (scenic) route to LA and the rest is history. I’m a handpoke tattoo artist (my instagram is @elriomarfa), illustrator, photographer, and I make my own clothes and embroidered patches sometimes.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people in the cities I visit and at home. I've made some great friends who were couchsurfing with my friends in Marfa and Chicago, and want to keep that going.
