About Me

I have always thought that nothing in this life happens by chance, we can write our own destiny.

I consider myself as a big fan of enjoying a few beers, a cigar and a good conversation. One of my favorite things is to listen people and share ideas, experiences and possible future plans.

I am an open-minded person, without prejudices, quite friendly, sincere and quite attentive, I like to help (that's how many Mexicans are).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I once heard that there are two types of people in this world; tourists and travelers. The tourist is the one who only goes through the places, takes a few pictures and leaves, without really knowing. On the other hand, the traveler is one who is willing to know even the smallest details.
I think hotels are for tourists, Couchsurfing sounds amazing for travelers.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to very varied genres of music but I could say that my favorites are: house, ska and my favorite singer is Marilyn Manson.

I have not read many books in my life but the ones that I can remember and that I have liked are: Journey to the Center of the Earth, The Picture of Dorian Gray, La Divina Comedia (summary).

I'm a fan of superhero movies, science fiction, suspense and cult films. My favorite directors are: Wes Anderson, Guillermo del Toro and Quentin Tarantino.
Some of my favorite movies are: Kill Bill, Pacific Rim, Moonrise Kingdom ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last year I was working on a project to combat sexual harassment in public transportation in Mexico. In my country, it is a problem that very few have dared to solve.

Teach, Learn, Share

One of the main reasons for this trip is to improve in English but if you are interested, I can help you to practice your Spanish.

I would love to know how is the life of the locals in each city that I visit, all those stories that only you know, there are always very different from what we have ever read.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you like to go to take a beer, i'll be happy to join with you. I can also help or prepare food and above all, I am a very clean person and tidy so, you wouldn't have to worry because I leave dirty your home.

In Mexico we have a sense of humor very "special", if you like, I can help you to understand it, to be a little Mexican. 😁
