CURRENT MISSION

To graduate from my master's in Intercultural Communication. To amass the largest collection of beer coasters ever known to mankind.

ABOUT ME

Mexican, born and raised. I spent a good part of my life underwater. I started swimming at the age of 3, then quit when I was 16, yielding to more hedonistic endeavors such as rock music. I love making music, singing and playing guitar. You can listen to my stuff here: www.yush.com.mx

I have been in Tilburg, where I'm currently studying my master for almost a year. I have a dad, a mom, a younger sister, two westies and a lab (whose breed is debatable, judging by its ears).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've only hosted musicians from Denmark, Switzerland and Serbia during my time in the Hague. It was cool, we had a few beers and played some music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen people that can heal with their hands. That same energy they use to do it can also show you MANY things we are not always able to see. That whole Reiki stuff. I believe in that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to swim, how to play guitar and how to speak a minimal Spanish with which to get by.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A kitchen, bathroom and mattress.
