i spend a lot of time thinking about:
Latin America, museums and art institutions, collectivity and collaboration, artists' magazines, copyright and intellectual property, historical and neo avant gardes, governmental cultural policy, the art market, globalization, the 1990s, photography, collecting and exhibition practices, spaces of art, contemporary art and theory, artists' / alternative exhibition spaces.

i have a black sense of humor, am adventurous, and interested in good conversation.

i speak four languages, english and spanish best.

i am a vegetarian and a good vegetarian cook.

i am honest, sincere, and straight-forward.

PHILOSOPHY

food is social glue.

you can never speak too many languages.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i have hosted and been hosted.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

it is the experience of travel that i am most interested in- seeing a city not through tourist destinations but getting to know the people and the places as they are lived.

i have met people who i admire, whose lives fascinate me, and who shine with wit. i am fortunate.

for me, couchsurfing is about meeting really extraordinary people who have inspired me to think differently, to be kinder and more generous, to want to know more people. i am grateful for the ideas, meals, and experiences we have shared.
