ABOUT ME

I really don't know how to describe myself, but, I like to laugh a lot, sometimes I'm quiet and serious, sometimes I can't stop laughing... I like the phrase from the movie V for Vendetta: "Is everything a joke to you, Gordon? Only the things that matter...". I love learning everything I can. To contemplate the world around me, talk to different people, learn more and more perspectives about life. I enjoy reading and going to the cinema (one of my favourite hobbies is to watch movies), music and theatres and watching nature, hikking and camping. But I also have a desire for adrenaline, so when I get the time and budget I like skydiving, sand and snow boarding, diving and driving. A very practical person sometimes.

PHILOSOPHY

There's an old saying that goes: "Quien no vive para servir, no sirve para vivir", kind of like this one by Albert Einstein: "Only a life lived for others, is a life worthwhile". I just keep on learning to try to become a better being. Trying to understand the emotions that lead to physical expressions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted a friend and visited a friend as a surfer, she's from Czech Republic. Also I went to Poland, Romania and Greece staying with fellow couchsurfers! Meeting awesome people in the way!! Went camping on the Sinaia mountains in Romania with 2 amazing friends!!

In the past few months I have hosted over 120 people, which now makes me more aware about the needs of different people and what to show them around the city! !

I'm currently and for a big season living in Montreal, Canada! I moved a few days ago so I won't be able to host in Mexico City!

Interests

Everything a man can do... I like carpentry (although my skills need improvement), reading, watching movies, dancing sometimes, listening to all kinds of music (I only don't have a taste for screams and guttural sounds, other than that, I enjoy learning new types of music), listening and sharing thoughts with people, learning new skills, camping, history, cooking... I would love to try some blacksmithing.
