CURRENT MISSION

I will be an international journalist when I'll graduate from college. Maybe a couple of years later, but I want to get to know the world as much as I can. I want to meet people, I want to learn from travelling.

ABOUT ME

I'm a Mexican studying in IL, USA. pacifist, activist, chill, real down to earth kind of guy. I love traveling, I like writing, and although I travel solo most of the times, I'm always happy to meet more people, hang out, and hit the road.

PHILOSOPHY

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do, than by the thing you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbour and catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I did a voluntary project in Turkey during my gap year after high school. In Denizli, I met this weird looking dude from Georgia who was there to do the same. He got the program late because he was just coming from Iran. We got along and after a while he propose to hitchhike to Antalya in the south of the country. I asked where would we stay and he mentioned Couch Surfing. We met with our host in Antalya soon after.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met people that are crazy to travel as me. It has been awesome, In Antalya, our host showed us around, in Istanbul, my host taught me how to do Kebab, it has been fantastic.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I once did bungee jumping from a 98 foot bridge in Costa Rica. It was really fun.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I am learning Serbian and Chinese. Low-key maybe in like a year or so I'll be able to at least have a small conversation. I'll need a lot of practice so I'm learning from every person I have the chance to speak with.

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I can teach Spanish and some basic French. I know very good movies, great articles, and I'm always up to have a nice time.
