CURRENT MISSION

TO BE HAPPY!

ABOUT ME

Hi. I'm Rodrigo. Originally from Mérida, Yucatán but now lost in the mountains of San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas.

I work as a translator. I am fluent in English, French, and Portuguese.

I am a huge music nerd. I DJ as a hobby. Love to share music from all eras all around the world. There is crazy funky stuff in every corner of the world. World music!

(Adult) cartoons also are among my favourite things' list. The likes of: the Simpsons, Rick and Morty, BoJack Horseman, etcetera.

Here, for the obvious accomodation that I could get from the hosts that really facilitates travelling for us wanderlusters. But also, to connect with people, both locals and like-minded travellers.

The real way to really experience a new place is by getting to know the locals.
So, hit me up if you plan to come to Mexico and need a place to crash for a few days.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I moved to Chiapas from Mexico City so now I live in the mountains with my dog Funky, who is the absolute best thing ever. Can host in my apartment downtown of this little town.

Both, surf and host. It's cool to share and facilitate the travel of like minded people.
