I'm a friendly guy who grew up in several countries around the world and is keen on learning more about the planet, its nature and its people. Say hi, I don't bite :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make friends with people from all around the world :)

Interests

Cycling. I like to ride my bike and explore new routes. I once biked from Mexico City to Teotihuacan (100km round trip). I would like to do a long touring or bikepacking trip some day.

Photography. Lately I've been editing my old pics and getting creative with them. I post them on ig (sr.fantasma).

Nature. I like going to natural places like forests or mountains. Also, I was very into sustainability, permaculture, organic farming and intentional communities.
