I love to travel and meet new people from all over. I've lived in both Northern and Southern California as well as Cancun, Mexico. I now live in the San Jose area and love how there are so many different cultures here. I tend to work a lot of hours, and most of my free time goes to dog friendly activities (hiking, beach, parks, etc.), but I also make time to get out to dance. I have been dancing salsa and bachata for a number of years, so if you come to San Jose and want to dance, I'd love to take you!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm looking for genuine interactions with people from different locations to share experiences, learn, and expand my network. I am fascinated with other cultures and learning how others live and thrive in locations different than my own.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I drove from San Jose, CA to Cancun, Mexico on a road trip to move back there after Huricane Wilma. I spent Huricane Wilma (cat. 5) in Cancun and went out during the eye of the storm to check on damages (not recommended, EVER). Saw the sunrise over Haleakala crater (twice!). Hiked along the Napaali coast. Moved to Mexico on a whim without a plan.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can share the best places to go salsa dancing. Let me know what you are interested in and I can show you the best way to get there.
