Traveling around Canada and USA :) I'll come back to Mexico in August

I’m Biology student that enjoy to make friends around the world, travel as a backpacker and learn things about life from other people :D

Learn about other cultures is one of the things that I love the most, due to that I worked for 8 months in a hostel in my hometown just for the amusement of make friends and hang out with them showing some nice places around Mérida. In my personal opinion learn about other cultures change the way you see the life and makes you grow up as a person.

Other activities that I enjoy a lot is snorkeling and spend time in the beach, my hometown is pretty close from the coast. I really like to spend time outside of the city in the nature, camping and other stuff. And also I like to hang out and grab beers with travelers ;)

Other interest that I have is the botany, nowadays I'm writing my thesis about distribution of orchids and bromeliads in the east of Mexico. As well in sports I'm a big fan of football (soccer) and box.
