About Me

CURRENT MISSION

being a nice girl

ABOUT ME

I make the best chilaquiles in Puebla and I can quote from Almodavor films, but never from a Schwarzenegger one. And just like an Almodovar films, I love life, whether its men dressed as women singing love songs, or eating food off the stomach of a stranger, or talking with the deaf old man on the corner, I am open to everything, and value those who are true to themselves and want to share. And if I look familiar you may have seen me selling my handmade jewelry around Mexico. And now I am looking for people around the world who want to share their culture with me, the nice chiquita from puebla.

PHILOSOPHY

Peace and love. Which sounds typical but does it really get more important than that. i try to live that every day. And I cant forget my little friends, the animals of the world. Not the mean kind like politicians but the dogs, cats, monkeys, cows, all of them. they are so wonderful, really. I think the animals add to our spirit and make us better people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am the nicest host. ever. If you visit me, you will never want to leave Puebla because I will show you place that even the locals dont know. And when I surf with somebody they dont want me to leave ever because we have such a good time. Plus, I clean the dishes, feed their dogs, and laugh at all their stories.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am still kind of new to the offical couchsurfing experience but I am trying to win an award for best couchsurfer ever. I have had many, so many, people stay with me over the years, and they still talk about their time in Puebla! And since I like to backpack around my country I have had many nice people give me a couch or floorspace, and we spend so many hours sharing stories about our life experiences. I love it.

Interests

Books. Oh, I love to read so much, and film, Oh, all the great artistic films, but when I leave the house, I can not stop dancing. Cumbia, Salsa, chacha, Madonna, if it has a beat, i like it so much. And of course, I love to travel a lot. It is the best to meet new people and share something with them.
