CURRENT MISSION

I live and enjoy everyday to the fullest, disregarding where I am or the resources I have. I believe that life experiences are the most valuable asset anyone can have, at the end of the day, life is what you make of it.

And I am trying, in my way, to be free.

ABOUT ME

Easy going, humble human being. I am all into getting to meet new people, sometimes I can come across as a bit shy, but eventually I Iose up. I enjoy sharing life experiences and having deep conversations whenever appropriate.

Currently I work/study law in Guatemala City, which consumes most of my time unfortunately. Whenever I have some time off I like to getaway and forget about everything. Even if unconsciously I avoid getting out of my comfort zone, I've found that facing challenging situations at the end have fulfilled me the most.

PHILOSOPHY

Make it count. All day! EVERY DAY!

I strongly believe that the highest result of education is tolerance. If anyone is to survive, he/she will have learned to take a delight in the essential differences between men and between cultures. He/she will learn that differences in ideas and attitudes are a delight, part of life's exciting variety, not something to fear.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can host whenever I am not traveling, and sometimes I need a host too! So, both ways. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It is great method to get connected with locals, they can truly show you the City's inner gems, and have an awesome time.

Interests

I am a true believer in genuine spontaneity and its momentum when it comes to activities, as long as it does not involve earth worms.

Reading, visual arts, surf the pacific waves, underground music (either way I usually adjust to any gender depending on the occasion) cooking meals to share, chatting over drinks, and traveling whenever I can.

I also like to go to concerts, any type of extreme sports, (even If I haven't tried them, the learning curve is the most fun ) Adrenaline kicks. I really enjoy independent and classic cinema.
