About Me

Hey everyone!

I was born and raised in Guadalajara, México. After living there for 25 years I decided to move to Madrid. I was there for two years and a half, working in the advertising industry and getting myself submerged in the street art World. There, I founded a project called Strawberry Streets which main focus is to promote a stronger bond between Latin America and Europe through street art.

Due to the fact that Rotterdam has an amazing creative, artistic and underground movement, I decided to move in here with my girlfriend because I believe my project's wings can grow in this city. I am really looking forward to start a life in Rotterdam!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As some say, life is too short to stay in one corner. That is why I decided to become part of this community. I had a couchsurfing experience through my girlfriend's account and I was amazed by how open-minded and proactive hosts may be. Thanks to this wonderful first experience, I am really excited to host people and to travel around the world through this community.
