I like good spicy food, architecture, impressionist art, and rock climbing. Next on my to-do list is kite surfing and sailing classes

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to learn about how people in different cultures see the world, but locals aren't at hostels and a short trip isn't enough time to meet people normally, so I hope to meet more locals through couch surfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing manta rays in person was amazing. I can't wait until I can swim with them

Teach, Learn, Share

Unfortunately I haven't traveled much and can only teach English, but I'm somewhat knowledgeable on coffee/wine/rock climbing and random other activities.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Nice home cooked food, silly conversation, bad singing.
