CURRENT MISSION

Trying to be happy each day, help others as much as I can, learn and smile.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Bogota (Colombia), worked for more than 10 years on the corporate side, moved to the US a few years ago to learn English and work in my Masters -I'm still here; unbelievable!

Nice, reliable, and especially good friend. I try "almost" everything, eat "almost" everything and enjoy "almost" everything.

+ I love Racquetball -even though haven't played since I moved to the US.
+ I also love movies, reading a good book, watching professional sports, getting a good beer, exploring the city and meeting people.
+ And I kind of like dancing -of course, salsa and bachata (I have no idea how to dance hip-hop, swing or country music).

The best beer I've ever tried was in Minneapolis, with an awesome Couchsurfer! My best friend in DC used to be a super sweet Couchsurfer!

PHILOSOPHY

Learning from others and letting others learn from me.

"The only difference between the person you are today and the person you'll be one year from now, is the number of books you read, the number of places you visit, and the number of people you meet." ... Me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best thing ever.
