About Me

It´s been a while since I last used the patform and I really missed those days back when couchsurfers stayed at my place and used to change ideas and experiences.
Anyways, I have continued traveling around the globe in a different way, but the lack of contact with the locals and experiencing other cultures first hand is what brings me back to couchsurfing.

Easy going, bad temper sometimes, a bit sarchastic, a times a little too serious but I´m not different than any other human here, but my friends despite their negative feedback they end up telling me that I a great guy and that´s the reason they are always with me always laughing and arguing. Controversial I would say.

Current mission, to make a difference in this world, I I at least can make a difference to one person my job is done :).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined the community long ago and Ive had some good experiences, I haven't surfed any couch yet but I hope to get that experience soon

I'm interested in traveling to places with a wide variety of culture and diversity. Getting to know people who is willing to share their personal experience in doing similar things such as traveling, camping, swimming, etc.

Interests

I have many, too many, learning a new language, travel more, meet new people but I realized that it was way too selfish, because everything was just about me.
So now I have one purpose and that is about social work, doing something meaningful by helping to improve others people lives.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a sci-fi person, I love all those space ship movies, aliens, space horror and suspense, etc.
I like books, but I don't read as often as I would love to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the things I have enjoyed the most was traveling from Calicut, India to Dheli by train in a 42 hours trip with my indian friends. Definitively a experience I enjoyed a lot by meeting new people every station and staying in that train that long.

Traveling to turkey and meeting my friend Ali.

Also traveling alone to India where I met Ajmal from Kerala and all his lovely friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to cook the mexican way in a very practical manner, I love too cook for my friends and they say I am a very good cook, so why you don´t come to my place and let me cook something deliciuos for you? I would also love to learn new dishes from other cultures.

Time, chat, my dogs, my space and some food, that last thing will depend on how much time I have available but definitively I will try my best.

Colombia, Costa Rica, El Salvador, France, Germany, Guatemala, Hong Kong, India, Italy, Mexico, Morocco, Netherlands, Nicaragua, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, United States, Venezuela
