About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Drive back home on a veggie truck camper!

ABOUT ME

Making our dream come true! We are driving our truck camper from Pemberton, BC to Alaska and then back home to Chile. It's a veggie truck! It runs on waste vegetable oil, so we are collecting used cooking oil from every restaurant on our way. (www.upachalupa.org)

I love my life, I'm happy with the decissions I've made, I've tried to listen myself and do what I really want to do, what makes me happy to live a better life.

PHILOSOPHY

DO IT!!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As we are traveling at the moment, we are contacting a lot of CSers along the Americas that could give us a hand.
But before traveling I've hosted a few people in Chiloé (Chile) where we used to live before this trip.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's been 2 years now since I started using CS and it's been great! I've met so many amazing people, very generous and interesting.
