Born in Baltimore, MD in 1988, my family then moved to Puerto Rico in 1990 where I lived until 2000. Since then I've been living in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl and hope to stay here for the weather. I like to live life below my means and enjoy it to the fullest. I'm a believer in Jimmy Valvano's quote "If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that's a full day. That's a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you're going to have something special."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been wanting to travel more solo since it's hard to find friends that can travel last minute like I do. Also, it would be nice to meet local people and get opinions on things to do and feel like you have a friend somewhere you've never visited before.

Interests

I like to sight see old buildings and architecture. I also really enjoy walking in parks that have trails and amazing natural scenery. I enjoy watching sports and try to watch a game whenever I travel somewhere new and cheer for the home team.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to listen to instrumental music and make up my own lyrics in my head or just enjoy the melody.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had an amazing experience snorkelling on the coast of Grand Turk when three lemon sharks swam up and rubbed past me. My heart started pumping but I didn't feel threatened.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe we learn through experiences and empathise by hearing people's stories first hand.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm always open to try new adventures and share my philosophy on how I view the world. If you're doing any home improvement projects I don't mind lending a hand. I don't mind doing local charity and getting involved in the community.
