Lo siento, Unable to host right now, I'm on the move!

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy the now, to keep finding new things about myself and the relationship with other beings (human and not human), and to eat a lot of chocolate cake!

ABOUT ME

I'm from Guatemala city. I do movement work related: dancer, choreographer, art.therapy. I enjoy both the caotic city night life and the serenity of the greens and blues of the untransitated road. I enjoy learning new things, challenging myself and to be amazed by how many and how different life can be; from person to person, from place to place, from moment to moment.

PHILOSOPHY

"Only a lack of imagination, or lack of energy, gets in the way each of us to be a poet or a musician, an inventor or explorer, amateur scholar, scientist, artist or collector"

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting other minds/souls and their worlds, makes mine so much richer. Being able to find common ground and learn to comunicate beyond words (thru everyday rituals, home deco, and life sharing). Always great to understand a place through the ones who inhabit it.

Some of the current interestes:
Dance (specially Contact Improvisation) / Pina, ChunkyMove, Sharon Fridman, 60secdance...

Cinema / We need to talk about Kevin, Pulp Fiction, Upstream Color, Historias Salvajes, Victoria, Requiem for a Dream...

Talking with a rich glass of wine (preferably red) or a rum (preferably if its a Zacapa Centenario ;)

I enjoy learning new trades, worlds and people. Respect creates respect, comunication is the key.
