About Me

Hey there! I'm from Tijuana, Mexico-right on the border with California-so my life has always been a mix of cultures, languages, and ways of thinking. I love that blend, and it shaped me into someone who's naturally curious and open to new perspectives.

I live with my girlfriend, and we both use Couchsurfing as a way to connect with people from around the world. We enjoy opening our doors, sharing meals, and creating memories with travelers who bring their own stories and energy into our lives.

I'm an entrepreneur at heart (I've started projects from consulting to wellness brands), but what really drives me is people-sharing ideas, learning from different backgrounds, and creating connections that feel real. I'm the kind of person who can spend hours geeking out about big ideas like innovation or culture... but also laugh at silly stories over street tacos or a good beer.

Travel for me isn't about checking places off a list-it's about the conversations, the stories, the random adventures you don't plan but always remember. Couchsurfing is exactly that: the chance to meet people who make a city come alive in ways you won't find in a guidebook.

What We're Into

🌎 Exploring cultures through food (we'll always say yes to street food!)

🗣️ Deep conversations that start at midnight and end at sunrise

📖 Storytelling-whether it's podcasts, videos, or just swapping life stories

🎒 Building things (brands, ideas, friendships) and watching them grow

🧳 Music, travel, and those small moments that feel big when you look back

Our Philosophy

Everyone you meet is a chance to see the world through new eyes. We try to live with curiosity, gratitude, and a sense of adventure-because the best stories usually start with "Why not?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because travel is about people, not just places. My girlfriend and I believe Couchsurfing is the best way to meet locals, share authentic experiences, and create friendships that last longer than a trip. Hosting or being hosted is about trust, curiosity, and making the world feel smaller and warmer

Interests

I'm interested in culture, food, and the stories behind people's lives. I enjoy exploring new places, creating meaningful projects, and sharing time with people who are passionate about what they do. I also love deep conversations, but I'm equally happy with laughter, music, and a good coffee.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share what I know about entrepreneurship, storytelling, and process improvement (without making it boring, I promise!). I love learning about other cultures, languages, and daily traditions that make life unique in every place. And I'm always open to sharing meals, ideas, and moments that create connections
