Hi there! My name is Aranza and I'm a travel writer from Mexico City. I love to travel (obviously) and I really enjoy meeting people from all over the world, specially if I get to show them my beautiful country and its amazing food.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To make new friends from all over the world, to practice my English/ German and of course, to have a good excuse to go get tacos and mezcal.

Reading, writing, cinema, photography, traveling, art, wine, cheese, aaaaaand cats.

Music, Movies, and Books

Most kinds of music, except norteñas. Hate 'em.

I love movies and documentaries in general , but I am a big fan of Wes Anderson and El Chivo Lubezki. I also have a crush on Anthony Bourdain.

I am a full time bookworm :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Living one year in India and two months in Vietnam, volunteering in Tanzania, watching sunset in Bali, getting lost in Zanzibar, drinking wine in a tiny Spanish Town, and almost swimming with a shark in the Dominican Republic.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you about my culture, my food and my traditions; help you find your way in the craziness of Mexico City, give you travel advice if you want to explore the country, and of course, show you around when possible.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can't currently host, as I don’t have too much room at home.
