I come from Guadalajara, Mexico. I have a Bachelor in Physics from the University of Guadalajara. I lived half a year in the perfectly symmetric city of La Plata, Argentina, and in the Imperial city of Vienna. Now I am doing my PhD at the university of Warsaw.

I am a simple man, who enjoys nice conversations, likes to meet new people, who always tries to look on the bright side and learn from my mistakes.

I'm spontaneous, funny, easygoing and very patient.

I like challenges, boardgames and beer.

I love films, music, books and unfunny jokes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I became interested in CS as a way of traveling on my own. Because I was a bit tired of family trips and guided tours. I felt more a tourist who is trying to escape their routine at any cost, instead of a traveler who embraces the new experiences and has no strict schedule.

In other words, I want the people from the places I visit to enjoy my presence by sharing.

Interests

The soul feeds upon new experiences!

Weather is traveling, in order to meet new people, to see amazing places, live different cultures and ways of thinking. Or by finding the deepest structures underlying the fabric of nature, as a theoretical physicist. My drive is to explore the world around me.

On the other hand, I love to share what I've found in the course of my live, and my favorite way of doing so is with a good conversation. I'm always interested in finding people who I can learn from them and are willing to learn from me too.

I am also interested in arts (painting, writing, photographs, dancing, acting, ...). To me those are a great way of sharing ones mind and finding what's in other people ones.

So, in a few words: My passion is discovery, and sharing what I love!
