COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well, first I spent a couple of really cool days with my first couchsurfing friends here in Mexico city, showed them around and had endless talks :D Then in one trip I did I got the chance to visite them and it was so cool to spend time together again at other side of the world, that's why this site is so amazing :D

Three summers ago I just did my very first trip as a surfer and it was amazing :D The time I spent in Paris and Rome wouldn't be the same without this great experiences. Met wonderful people and shared very cool moments with them :)
Now I'm in Italy!!!, looking forward to live an amazing experience!, so excited about that!!!! :p

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've painted a couple of murals in Rome, London, Mexico City & Berlin! :P I've been an italian teacher for the management team in a hotel (knowing just the basic italian stuff... haha). I've lived in one of the most beautiful and artistic cities in Mexico, Guanajuato!!! :D

Teach, Learn, Share

If you get to choose between a hotel and a hostel, pick a stranger's house!! ;P
