Hello my name is Diego I'm from México and France.

I am curious about everything. My friends describe me as relaxed, enthusiastic and a little out of mind ahah. I like meeting people with whom I can just have a laugh and play a game (sports/board games) or go into deep conversations and culture sharing if we feel like it. The last couple of years I worked as an algae biologist. I decided to change some habits to reduce my footprint and do more to defend human rights !

Update - on summer 2024 I quit my job and became nomad. I want to exit my confort bubble and experience and savour life as much as I can.

Open minded, LGBT+ friendly, neurodivergent friendly.

I know some good jokes. Let’s have a drink !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because the world is a big perpetual wave and I want to get on a couch and surf it. (I wrote that when I was 19 and I'm going to leave it there)
