About Me

CURRENT MISSION

A World Wide Adventure with my camera, my moleskine and my motorcycle

ABOUT ME

I'm easy going guy, very interested in discovering countries and people.
I'm very avaiable to tell my stories and all my travel experiences to anybody who sincerely want to know me. In 2008 i decided to live a time of my life travelling, i quit everything and i started again improvising a new career as a photojournalist to maintain myself economically during the trip. Along the way i become photographer and videomaker. I worked for some institutions like Greenpeace and Nat Geo Channel, Max and Banamex, Red Cross, Gobierno Mexicano.. and some others.. i ve written some ebooks..
I guess, now, my aim is to keep traveling and grow as writer.

PHILOSOPHY

Discover who you are and what you really want.. through experience.
It is still an open question with no determined answer.
Traveling is a way of formulating hypotheses around this.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm willing to help everyone who ask me for somethings, unfortunately now i cannot offer any couch cause i'm travelling continously since 2008. I can exchange information or provide logistic support whether being contacted by some other member. And of course would be great to join some local community!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since 2008 i ve been hosted different times, always positive experiences. never a misunderstanding, never a conflict, so i am definitively happy to keep knowing this community

Interests

I am professional photographer, videomaker and psychologist.
I love to take a picture of beautifulness i encounter during travelling and
exchange stories with people i meet.
Right now i want to grow as a writer.. the words are the missing links to describe the world around me which i use to reveal only with my camera.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well,
the first time i tasted the freedom, when i left my country in 2008 to start this new life style.. travelling.
And.. the sensation that every day could be like sunday ..
and.. taking a wonderful picture of something..
and.. having time to think about it..
and.. reshape all my trip schedule just because i met someone..
and.. catching new experience fighting for something in a foreign country
and.. writing and pretend that one day i'll have a wonderful book done and ready to publish
and....

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, i can teach a lot about photography and videomaking.
I can share passion for books and movies,
I can tell a lot of travel stories,
I can discuss what a good life could be and where our evolution could be headed,
I can speculate about happiness and meaning, about personal growth and many other things,
I can accept I have many doubts and bearing with them it's a good skill...
