Overview
About Me
I live in Mexico City, but I travel often! I love exploring new places and meeting new people. I find joy in a lot of different things - outdoors, indoors, active, relaxing, thought provoking, or zen ❤️
One of the loveliest compliments I have received was that I have contagious positivity 😊
My "normal" life at home in Mexico City involves exploring new vegan restaurants, running a dog fostering organization, going to my calisthenics gym, hanging out at home with friends, video chatting the friends who live far away, and walking around my neighborhood soaking up its beauty ☀️
Friendly reminder (emphasis on the "friend" here), CS is not a dating app! I'm not interested in meeting up if you think it is ✌️
I only accept friend requests from folks I've met in person
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love hostel life because of all the amazing and friendly people you meet there, but sometimes I'm looking to stay in a less rowdy environment. Plus, when I stay with a local host I learn so much more about what life is really like in this new place! Even though I'm still pretty new to CS, I have stayed with friends in their home countries before, and it's such a special experience getting their perspective on the place they know so well but I'm only just beginning to discover
