About Me

I'm a student at Mexico's National University. I like to travel, already been to Cuba and some countries in Europe, and in Mexico, and have some experience travelling trought the south of the country.
I like learning different languages, I have studied English, French and German, but I'm not very fluid in French or German. I like reading about the history of my country and love to know different cultures,

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I prefer getting to know local people and having the possibility of knowing them, exchanging experiences and perhaps even travel with them, than staying on hotels which are usually very cold -humanly speaking-. I believe you can get a deeper insight to the country's culture and the real people in it, and no t just the showroom usually presented to the tourists.

Interests

I like the bike because of the freedom it provides to the rider. It's a very versatile mean of transportation, and the fact that the amount of distance that one travells isdue to the self-effort is a great incentive. I believe that's the same reason why I like gimnastics: I'm amazed for the potential of the human body.

Math and science are a fundamental part of my life. The last 6 years I've been studyng math at highschool and postgraduate levels. The beauty that lies in it's perfection is stunning, but I belive that the most important thing its the way that math can help in the developement of our societies.
