Overview
About Me
I'm a wanderer but responsible person. I like to party, watch films, make them and love to film. I Could write a bunch of things but is better if you ask me if you want to know anything.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like to host to give back the chances and opportunities friends and other have gave me in the past, and maybe will give me in the future. When a friend is in need I always go back to the motto "Mi casa es tu casa" that my mother taught me through the years.
Interests
I love cinema and filmmaking (i graduated from filmschool). I enjoy reading various kind of novels and poetry as much i enjoy listening to rock, indie and/or orchestral music. I like to watch football (specially if Pumas or Manchester United are on the tele).

Mi Casa es tu casa, just respect it, is that simple.
What I Can Share with Hosts
We have a solo matress, a couple of couches and space for you to figure out how to stay here and feel at home.
We like to share food, drinks and stories.
We have a beautiful, playful, cute'n'crazy, kinda-terrier, dog named "Chaparro", a.k.a. El Chapo (non-related), and another quite similar, like puppies form the same mother but aren't, called Chula. He's tough, she's pure love.
"We" is because we have a 2 1/2 bedroom apartment and I share it with my best friend Ismael, and a great roomie, Iván.
