About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Go to random places, meet random people, and experience random adventures

ABOUT ME

I was born in Costa Rica. I have a mixed upbringing between Costa Rica and United States. I really dedicated a lot of time to my hacking passion but ever since I moved to San Francisco (September 2010) I decided to create a huge balance in life. Since I moved to San Francisco I've picked up plenty of new activities and am interested in trying new ones. I enjoy talking to strangers and learning about different cultures.

I'm deeply in love with nature...

PHILOSOPHY

Freedoms always come first, then I work hard to enjoy and share them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I can I host, and try to surf if I have time to send requests out, but I mostly engage with CS at events in random cities.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hands down... Patagonia was amazing. I spent quite a bit of time exploring it between Chile and Argentina with emphasis on the rock climbing scene.

I see a lot of amazing things in San Francisco on a regular basis, but the last thing I remember that stood out was seeing someone who I thought was a bumb get up on openmic at Hotel Utah and put on a really great performance.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to play the guitar, how to hack, program or do anything with computers including networking, I can show you how to snowboard, surf, rock climb and play tennis.

I'd love to learn something someone is an expert in, I believe I pick things up quickly. Up for a trade?
