CURRENT MISSION
Enjoy a career break and go on a great journey through three continents through 2017 // Puse mi carrera de marketing en pausa para embarcar en un gran viaje por tres continentes hasta el 2017.

ABOUT ME

Hey! What's up? I'm Jorge. I was born in Mexico, but have lived in the US since I was almost 11. I'm currently on a RTW trip and excited to experience cultures around the world

Soccer, craft beer, and adventure are three of my favorite things. And I usually find a way to combine all three whenever I travel.

I like movies, reading, running, and eating street food, and enjoy a night in as much as a night out.

¿Qué onda? Me llamo Jorge. Nací en México, pero he vivido en Estados Unidos desde los 11 años.

El fútbol, la cerveza artesanal, y las aventuras son tres de mis intereses favoritos, y casi siempre encuentro la manera de incluirlos en mis viajes.

Me gusta el cine, leer, correr, y comer comida callejera, y disfruto de una noche tranquila en casa tanto como una buena desvelada.

PHILOSOPHY

Do the right thing. And remember that as you grow older, you'll regret the things you didn't do more than the ones you did.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None on my travels yet, but I have hosted multiple times.

I enjoy welcoming people to my city and showing them around when I'm able to. It's great to learn about other cultures and meeting people from around the world whose are as passionate about travel as I am. And nothing beats a good meal or good drink (or both!) while sharing good stories.

Interests

I love to travel, especially solo. I love to eat and think there are few things better for the soul than a great meal with friends or family. I like exploring, trying everything once, and facing my fears. I enjoy running, reading, movies, sports, and meeting new people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Big fan of The Alchemist. Every traveler should read it!

I almost always read non-fiction and I love movies, whether at Cinerama (best theater in Seattle) or Blu-Rays at home.

I like all sorts of music (classical, edm, hip-hop, Spanish rock, country), just as long as there's not much screaming.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saw sunset from the top of the Monastery in Petra with a local bedouin.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make some great guacamole!
I enjoy learning new recipes from around the world.
