About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To show the best of our culture to the world.
ABOUT ME
Well I'm a guy who loves to travel, meet new people, show them the beautiful things in my country and learn from another ones. I practice Gnosticism and meditation. I love the good reading, watch movies, take long walks and wander at beautiful landscapes, I enjoy bicycle rides as well when I have someone to spend that time and if not, well bicycling solo is just great. By last but not least isone of my passions in this world, video games and electronics xD (such a geek).
I love to learn new things, languages, cultures, friends, secrets, good things and bad ones too. I believe that there's always something new to learn, and someone to learn from.
I want everyone to teach me, and I want to teach everything I know.
PHILOSOPHY
Know yourself and you will be a free soul.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I strongly believe that everybody has something to share, something different from what I know, something positive; you always learn something different from someone different, no matter who this would be. By the same principle I try to give new experiences to my guests and to all the people I know, who knows, maybe they can get something good from me.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Oh my, well, in my very first CS experience I couched a girl who before me she was in México City, she told me that a friend of her wanted to come to Morelia, so I said "yes, he can come and stay here". But when he arrived, I realized that he was a friend of mine whose I didn't see since I was 13 !!! So CS has made me reunite with old good friends!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
There are many things I've enjoyed in my lifetime, from the beautiful landscapes of Costa Rica, and the beautiful people there, to the beaches of Cuba. Or the many differences between big cities like Mexico City and Tokyo. Everyday is an amazing day, we should try, and start living in the "present" so we can start enjoining life.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'd say share ways of thinking rather than teach the good and bad things about my country, language, work, my believes and all the historical fun facts about Morelia that I know, I'd like to learn, and speak fluently the languages that I'm studying.
Countries I’ve Visited
Belgium, Canada, Costa Rica, Cuba, Germany, Japan, Netherlands, United States
