About Me

I love to learn about different cultures of each place, and meeting interesting people from all over the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is truly a place where I can meet interesting people from all over the world. It totally changed the way I travel and helped me connect with different people.

Interests

Scuba Diving, hiking, adventures, history, architecture, and food!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Taste changes with the mood, but Latin music and soft jazz is always a good choice

Movies: Memento, Lawrence of Arabia, Big Fish, Into the Wild, Casablanca, Twelve Angry Men, and a lot more...

Books: I mostly read technical books these days...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dined, danced, stargazed with nomads in the Arabian desert; trekked to the Ciudad Perdida in Colombia; went to Everest (base camp...); took my 60 year old parents on a class IV white water rafting trip in Ecuador!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm genuinely interested in anything. Every conversation that adds depth or width to my life is a good conversation.

I am also always happy to share my adventures to anyone!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories of my journeys, cultural and philosophical discussions, fun adventures and probably cook Chinese food!
