About Me

I want to have fun

"Eternity isn't some later time. Eternity isn't even a long time. Eternity has nothing to do with time. Eternity is that dimension of here and now that all thinking in temporal terms cuts off.... the experience of eternity right here and now, in all things, whether thought of as good or as evil, is the function of life." Joseph Campbell

CURRENT MISSION

Europe with bike

ABOUT ME

I like to dance, swim, ride, travel, read books....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I usually host more than I surf, trying to do my best as a host and trying to learn and teach whenever it is possible

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I already had many experiences in couch surfing and it is really changing my life in the most positive way ever.

Interests

Keywords: Yoga, Meditation, Karaoke, Science, Dijing house, Cooking, Dogs, Cats, Nature in general, Arts, Design, Technology.

I like things that I can not understand, for example conceptual art; Also swimming in the ocean very far away from the beach is somehow exciting for me.

. The indigenous communities in Mexico and other parts of the world are a principal topic for me. I like to understand their rituals and visions of the world.

Mexican food is my addiction, super tasty and spicy. I like to cook with my surfers.

Also evolution is a science that allow us to understand the only thing that is permanent: the change.
