About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Backpacking around Europe, hoping to meet as many nice people as possible and make long lasting memories on the wat.

ABOUT ME

I consider myself as an easy to get along with type of person, I love to meet new people and visit new places, be in touch with different cultures.

I am a mining engineer who got fired and decided it was time to travel the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life by appreciating the little moments and spending time with your loved ones.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I began as a Couchsurfer while studying abroad in Chile early 2014. I had great experiences thanks to CouchSurfing in South America and I would like to be a host in the future.

Since I just started traveling again, I plan to meet as many locals as possible wherever I go, so Couchsurfing is the way to do that.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosted three times, and the three times were really awesome experiences because I met really great people who really made me feel like home, were super friendly and who I still have communication with.

Interests

I am from México, I like to travel and spend time with friends. I love sports, I play basketball and really enjoy watching soccer. Read a good book and share a beer.
