CURRENT MISSION
Meet new people, live new experiences, and enjoy the world at its best!!

ABOUT ME
I'm an incredibly outgoing person with a huge love for life. Love to meet new people and learn about their culture, while at the same time explaining them mine.

PHILOSOPHY
"This is what you shall do: Love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life, re-examine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul; and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words but in the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body…"

Quote by Walt Whitman
(That quote pretty much sums it up!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I want to provide travelers from all around the world a safe place where they can crash.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've had people from all around the world stay in my couch in El Salvador (or sometimes the guest room when it's open) for a couple of days.

My list of guests include:
1 Swiss, 2 South Korean, 2 Ukrainian, 3 Polish, 2 Swedish, 2 Germans, 2 Australians, 2 Danish, 3 British, 5 Canadians, 5 Mexicans, 5 Nicaragua, 5 Costa Rican, 6 Honduran, 8 Guatemalan, and 15 Americans (All in separate groups).

Interests

Things that I enjoy:

Outdoor activities (Mountaineering, hiking, trekking, rafting, etc.), hanging out with friends, partying, , all sorts of sports (rugby, soccer, volleyball, tennis, etc), and meeting new people from all around the world.

FYI, I'm a mid-level mountaineer. I've climbed mountains in the Andes (South America) above the 6,000+ level (18,000ft aprox). Plan is to continue increasing level and become semi-pro.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed mountains in the Andes! Above 6,000mts is a complete different game.. but I love it! I challenge myself to keep improving, so someday you might see me doing the 7 summits!

Teach, Learn, Share

Regarding El Salvador:
I don't know if I have something to teach besides the fact that I know a lot of my country.
Every time a visitor comes to my place I try to introduce him to my beautiful country and show him/her what they have been missing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Lots of experiences, stories and good memories.
Travelling has opened my mind in an incredible way.. it's always good to share that with others!
