CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy the simple things in life and continue to grow personally.

ABOUT US

Omar:

I'm more like the unpretentious kind person, easy-going, quiet. I live my life being optimistic and happy. I'm patient and enthusiastic. I'm someone starving for knowledge and in a lifetime adventure. I learn more when I'm in the road than what I could ever learn in a classroom.

Luis:

I'm an easy-going, friendly, talkative, extroverted, funny person. I enjoy the simple things of life: a sunset, a nice talk, a good meal... I am an enthusiastic of culture and art, of beauty but not in a superficial way.

PHILOSOPHY

Omar:

Being sure that I cannot define a personal philosophy in two or three phrases that someone wiser than me has said, I'm trying to write my very own book each day of my life.

Luis:

I think that defining a whole way of seeing and living the life couldn't be condensed in a couple of copy-paste lines of a book, but if I have to do it I´ll definetly use this:

"Entre los individuos como entre las naciones, el respeto al derecho ajeno es la paz" B.J. (Among individuals as among nations, respect for the rights of others is peace).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Omar:

Winning the scholarship that gave me the chance to go to Europe and travel around it. That was awesome.

But I think that the places, people and experiences I've lived since I took the first bus had been the most exciting things I've ever seen or done...until the next travel!

Luis:

A sunrise in Sierra de la Sepultura, Chiapas, Mexico and a sunset in Los Lagos de Montebello, Chiapas, México.

A sunset in Playa Cocos, Telchac, México.

A dream came true: the palace of Versailles, it is just an amazing place!

Neuschwanstein castle in winter, one of the most beautiful things that I have seen.

Pena Palace, Portugal... sooooooo beautiful!

Teach, Learn, Share

We are passionate of the culture of our country and also of the region of Mexico where we come from (Yucatan peninsula); so we'll be always interested in sharing it: its art, its history, its gastronomy, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We are tidy, responsible, flexible and adaptable. We love cooking and try new dishes, so we can share some recipes. Also we can help you to improve your spanish. We enjoy speaking of our culture and country (if it's of your interest).
