About Me

Finally, Japan here I come! I have dreamed of getting to know you the past 15 years. Now I had the perfect excuse to come there: the world championship of Basketball, Finland is playing. After that I'm going to work remotely 1-2 months before returning my current home in Mexico where I have climbing gyms called RockSolid in Mexico City and Merida. Im going to Kyoto for Vipassana meditation but besides that Im exploring the country based on the intuition and randomnes. Finding right couchsurfing hosts is my key element of exploring your magnificent culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This is now my second coming to couchsurfing. I was active 2008-2012 then I got carried away by my entrepreneuer life. Now Im finally able again to enjoy the fruits of my labour and explore the world again. I think the best way of learning different cultures is to meet and enjoy the company of local people!
