CURRENT MISSION

Visit the world's cities

ABOUT ME

I'm a mechatronic engineer that loves dinosaurs. I've done some theatrical improvisation comedy and other theatrical performances. I'm an outgoing person, who loves talking and meeting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is such a small period of time to be wasted in tears, anger and resentment. Life changed my perspective since I was a child with a terrible accident. Therefore, being always happy would be a simple way to say my philosophy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

About 1 year ago I spent time with surfers visiting Quetzaltenango city with one of my friends who was a host.

Now, I just check once a while the conversations and give some advice based on my experience. Sometimes just talk to people from around the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing is an interesting experience. Nobody knows the people who will help or talk for a while. It is a little bit risky, but the surprises are worth the try.

Academically I may say that I love robotics. I am starting a Masters in Mechanical engineering.

My other interest consist in Dinosaurs, juggling, SciFi movies & anime series, theater and talking to people.
