About Me

Currently based in Mexico City. I travel a lot for work and I might not be in CDMX at the moment. Instagram https://www.instagram.com/heyjavoo/

I am a passionate Mexican fighting for social justice. I love to have good time with my friends and drink with them. I am currently working as Social Responsibility at an energy company, in Tamaulipas and Mérida Yucatan.

I love to travel and do it a lot (for pleasure and work). I like to show people thr highlights and history of the city I am currently based. I have studies/worked in Monterrey (Mex), Puebla (Mex), Oaxaca, Uganda, Nicaragua, Israel and United States.

I am gay and gay friendly (of course), 420 and smoke friendly, but not hard drugs.

I am hoping to meet cool people who want to explore the world and find out how colorful all places in the planet are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to offer couch as an experience for both me and the surfers, as we get to know each other, shared stories, a drink or two and become good friends.
