I'm a journalist student and volunteer from Mexico, currently living in Istanbul, Turkey for a semester abroad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to know local people since my area of expertise has made me interested in learning new ways of living and new stories about every person on earth. Everyone has something to teach you.

Interests

I'm interested in human rights, social movements, democracy, politics in general, conflicts among countries, activism, internet, censorship, photography, radio, film making, literature, volunteering, social inequality and creative writing.
