Leonardo Morantes

 

Leo was a fun, respectful, and interesting guest. His experiences, travels, views, and goals are unique and intriguing. He is generous and outgoing. Let this man surf should he request such!

Leonardo is very polite person. At the moment I met him he was already helping fellow trevelers to get of the train and find their way around the station. I only hosted Leonardo one night but I must say it was true delight. I would be happy to host you anytime you come to Ljubljana. He is very tidy, realible person. I trully hope to see you in Colombia or USA. Hasta luego mi amigo. :-)

Great guy! almost got me off cigarets :) he has some really cool hobbies and views on life and people.. hope ill see you again!!

 

An open spirit with a genuine interest in other people and cultures. Leonardo was, even after a long flight and several nights with only few hours of sleep, grateful for the walking tour of Zurich we did (of course he slept through on my couch the whole next morning). I would host him again any time.

I met Leonardo at a christmas party in Buenos Aires. We met the next day for a rooftop-party at my sister's place and had fun with some other Couchsurfers. He's a nice and smart guy who you can have good discussions with!

 

having leonardo in our house was a great experience, we met again after few years of not seeing each other. leonardo is a well-educated person with excellent manners....he is an easy person to have conversations with...
we enjoyed his stay with us...and hope to see him again

I definitely had a good time with this guy at the Christmas meeting he organized in Buenos Aires.

Leonardo and I met during the CS Invasion in New Orleans (organized by Derryl). It's NOT true, that my sister payed for the "paprika chicken", beacuse Leonardo did it!!! I don't know why, but he just trusted us and our cooking experience and did not allow us to pay :) So I tried to "satisfy" him (with the paprika chicken) and I think he is still waiting for the recepie :) I'm really glad, we've met in NOLA and spent a really cool time together (despite of the rainy weather). Leonardo!! I'm looking forward to meet you somewhere in America, with or without "paprika chicken"! :))

Leo organized a funny hostel Christmas party in Buenos Aires!
We were 20 people having fun all night long!

 

Cool of Leo to arrange the party

 

After only 10 years, 4 months, ......CONGRATS on the promotion to the blue passport!

Let's talk Havana soon.

 

I was originally contacted Leonardo to surf his couch in Mobile and to talk about my upcoming trip to Colombia. That fell through when he had to go to a medical conference. We didn't let a minor hiccup get in the way of a good time. When Leonardo came to Atlanta we met up at a CS dinner and had a blast. We were talking about travel, Colombia, and how great CS is. He is a great person who is very proactive in CS. I would surf, host, and travel with him anytime. Thanks for all the great tips on Colombia.

 

At dinner, Leonardo was telling our table about all his amazing experiences exploring the Americas. Oh- and congrats on the citizenship!

 

I had the pleasure to spend a fun CS invasion with Leonard including fine jazz concerts, buggy ride, a war game :) and an intro to Hungarian cuisine. He definitely is a nice and trustworthy person!
Sept 2009 update: It was a pleasure to meet Leonardo again during his trip to Budapest. He is such a nice person and can genuinely appreciate cuisine and culture. We should definitely make it a third time!

Leonardo is pretty much awesome, he was very but very helpful to pick us up from Biloxi when we tried to evacuate. It was also very kind of him that he introduced us to his lovely wife and brother. I hang out 2 days and it was well enough to know his big heart.

 

I had a wonderful time when Leonardo came to a couchsurfing invasion in New Orleans, a collaboration of several ambassadors. Leonardo was a great guest at my house and added to the events of the weekend. Thanks, hope to meet again.

he is a great guy!!! very friendly, funny, easy going, great personality :)

He is a great guy, we met in Mobile town last summer and we had a good time. We did not spend enough time but I must say that he is very very friendly and smart. I really wish you the best and I hope be back in the us again. Have fun

I met Leo at a starbucks and he introduced me to couchsurfing which is totally awesome. He is really friendly and fun to talk to!!!

 

Leonardo was so nice to greet me when coming to his town of Mobile. He is very warm, intelligent and a very experienced traveler. He gave me great tips while we drouned ourselves in caffeine at his local Starbucks, both for different reasons. He was studying for his final exams on his way to becoming a doctor and I was traveling through the night on a 19 hour voyage home from working in Houston, TX to where my RV was in central Florida. I wish that we had more time to hang out and that the last minute timing was different but I will be passing back throug his area again soon and will definitely look him back up. I suggest that you do the same. He has the true 'couchsurfing' spirit and a great soul. See you again Leonardo! Come visit Florida! You both are welcome with me.

It was very good knowing Leonardo, a host that everyone should have, very polite, kind and quiet. Hope meet him again.. kiss for you..

Leonardo is a great guy who really really really likes to travel. So if you're on couchsurfing.com, you probably have a lot in common with him. And he likes to see how people in other countries live instead of seeing hotels. So again, if you are on couchsurfing.com, you probably have a lot in common with him.

 

Leonardo is exactely what you expect from a guest: nice, polite, clean, really interested to travel and to share experiences, funny and friendly. He has a fantastic CS soul that give to you the hopeness that CS Project will grew through people like Leonardo. I´m sure that we will meet again somewhere in the world!!!

 

Leonardo was a great guest, educated, polite, fun to be with, and very smart!

 

Leonardo is a really cool, interesting guy. We met in sao-paulo thru mutual CS friends, and ended up spending the better part of 2 days together. A great guy, fun to meet, and i hope to surf his couch in mobile soon :)

We met eachother during a great party in Niteroi and had some nice conversations. It was a pleasure to meet you Leonardo, and for sure I will let you see a little bit more of the Netherlands once you are back in Europe! You are welcome in Amsterdam!

We had a good ol' time hanging out with Leonardo in Niterói & in Sao Paulo! A nice surprise for the both of us! We hope to be able to meet up again soon, in the States or who knows, why not in Europe!! Nuestra casa es tu casa amigo!! Un besote! J&A

Leonardo is such a nice guy, even when he's had no sleep at all(that tells you a lot about a person). All my friends loved him in Sao Paulo and I'm definetly looking foward to seeing him again sometime. All the best and good luck on your tests!

 

Sometimes in life you meet people that you can totatlly feel you would be friends for life with them. This is the case with Leonardo. He is such a nice guy, easy to talk to about just anything. I had an amazing time while he was here, and I wish to visit him in Mobile on time for Mardi Gras ;) Hope our path will cross again!

 

I met Leonardo in the hive of carioca crazyness, namely the Maracana... he's an intelligent and curious guy, and I totally support your "33-project"... please tell me if you come in Canada!

I met Leo while he was in Rio and he was a good company, looking to learn more about Rio and Brasil culture. I hope to meet again soon!

Besides the fact we didn't manage to talk one each other, face our language communication problems, i just realize he's a great guy. Maybe who knows someday i'll meet up him in America... huh?

It was really nice to hang out with Leo, he was always an excellent companion at our gatherings and we always had a lot of fun and some talks about culture, which was enriching for me. Besides, he has always great chicks around him. hehe.
He’s very intelligent, full of energy and truly interested about people. :-)
Good luck in your journey mate!
And come back soon as ít possible!

I love Colombia and I love speaking Spanish so, when I met Leo, I made his life "miserable", cause I couldn't stop talking...lol Anyway, we had fun at the game, he is very nice, polite and, even though he's a little serious, I'm sure he's a party guy. Nice "cachaco"...hope to keep in touch!

Unfortunatly, I met Leonardo just once in a bbq in Rio. Anyway, I realize he´s very nice boy. I hope meet him more at any place around the world. ;-)

Leonardo was a very nice guest. He's crazy about music and he showed me some of his favorite songs. It was a great time. Unfortunately he could stay only one night.

Leonardo was an perfect guest. Too bad he could only stay one night. Had a fun night out with him. It was also funny he took a picture of my toilet :) .

This guy is great : he's funny and serious at the same time !! He's interested in everything, culture, beer, jenever ... just name it :-)

 

Leonardo is a very nice and polite guy. It was fun having you over! And thanks for our Spanish lesson! Enjoy your trip in Europe.
