About Me

Born in Mexico but ended up moving out to California when I was around 3. I lived in the US for almost 16 years and in 2010 I moved back to Mexico where I studied a Bachelor's Degree. I now live in Russia. Changing my style of living is now second nature.

I do plan on doing a lot of traveling since most of my traveling has been within the American and Mexican borders.

I have traveled a bit in Russia. (St Petersburg, Lipetsk, Voronezh, Ulyanovsk)

I look to continue to expand my horizons. Learn from others. Enjoy everyday life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, for a genuine cultural experience and to get to do some traveling done before old age gets here :D

There is a lot out there that needs to be learned. I am here to meet like minded people like myself, who also feel that little voice inside them telling them to LIVE and EXPLORE!

Interests

I enjoy cooking, reading, talking about politics, sports, meeting new people, trying out new things, learning, socializing, dancing, deep conversation.

Not a big movie fan, that isn't to say I don't enjoy a good movie though. I am more into series: Suits, Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Scrubs, Seinfeld, House of cards, Game of Thrones, Firefly, Fargo, Stargate, Friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Russian Крещение (jumping in a frozen lake)

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Well, I am a teacher by nature, and profession. So I am always willing to share any knowledge that others find useful and that brings nothing but bliss!

Learn: Open to any subject. Learning about others and their experiences, hearing their stories, lectures, thoughts is something I thoroughly enjoy. We have a lot to learn and so little time to do it!

Share: Give knowledge, and take it!

What I Can Share with Hosts

At the moment, I have a very tight schedule but I am sure we can work something out and spend morning together!

I have a room available, private which my guest can use! I have everything from pillows to blankets here!
