Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Currently working full-time in my first role as a Designer. Looking forward to growing and develop on my future career. Trying to discover Australia for the first time since the pandemic started.
ABOUT ME
I'm a very easy fun, friendly person, i enjoy spending time with my friends, talking with them, hanging out, and having quality time.
Architecture is my passion, But I also love to travel, photograph, food, and sleep.
I can sing, I was in a band back at university, but we still have gigs sometimes for fun.
I like smart people and smart conversations, I'm very talkative, and i like to hear and share couchsurf experiences, and meet new people.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe in karma, and always do the right thing; in Mexico, we have this phrase: "El que hace mal, se le pudre el tamal" (The one who does wrong, always gets it back worst). That's a state of always doing the right thing and don't have revenge for the evil other people do to you, it's always come back.
And of course, Ying and Yang, always looking for balance in life, including personal life, mental health, workout, professional life, and spirituality.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I came to study to Australia back in 2020 and got stuck here during the pandemic event, never traveled to the country before and just got visited a little from Victoria. Now the pandemic is getting under control I'm looking forward to visiting more of Australia for the first time. I believe in humankind first of all. We start having good relations with strangers in the streets, saying good morning or thank you to people is a way to improve our civility towards others. We need to disconnect from our cell phones and start talking again. At the end of the day, we need to feel empathy between people to start feeling empathy for our animals, and our planet.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I like to know people from the other side of the world, since I've join couchsurf in 2012, I've met a lot of people in china, japan, brazil, Poland; etc. people who i still talk to, and we get to know very well and years after we even reunited in a different circumstance and a different territory. At the end of the day when i get old, i hope to know/be friends with a person from every different country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
As a erasmus student i have met a lot of beautiful people and spending marvelous time with them. The most amazing thing i've done is that me and my friend Sofía from Greece, did an amazing spontaneous trip. All started when we meet on the club like all the friday's erasmus nights, and we were boring; so we decided to go for a trip to Valencia from Zaragoza, Spain. We got out of the club really fast, go to our place to make bags and then to the bus station to buy the tikets, it was 3.00am in the morning and the beginning of one of the most incredible day of my life. I couldn't tell the hole history cause' its really long, but i can tell you that we got to sleep at the next Sunday at 7am.
