Overview
About Me
Im easy going, traveling for the first time.
My mom and dad live in Queretaro, Mexico. We have a construction business in Mexico. We build warehouses and steel buildings.
I am a very happy person, I like to laugh all the time, sometimes my mom and my girlfriend say that I don't take stuff seriously. But I do, when is needed, I just think we shouldn't take life thaat serious, because all of the sudden you become lame and bitter.
I've lived in the United States and have a US citizenship by a naturalization process. So I have both US and Mexican citizenship.
I don't really like the US, that's why I don't live there. I lived in California, Texas, Florida, Georgia and Indiana.
I consider myself a good friend and a loyal one. My parents always gave me the best education, since in Mexico private schools are very expensive, my dad had to bust his ass for me and my siblings.
I have two younger sisters and one older brother, Arturo.
I have a very united and loving family and I miss them very much.
Is the first time I come to Europe, but since the money that I came with is worth 18 times less, It kinda sucks!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
As I said before, my money isn't worth much here and my budget is very limited, my brother told me about this place, so I hope it works!!
Interests
I love sports, I play football ( the real football, not the one they call football in the US) , I love to swim and run. I have my rollerblades, so I can skate everywhere.
I like nature and enjoy parks and trails. I love to take casual photos of casual moments, not really into postcard kind of photos.
I enjoy reading history novels, biographies, detective novels. And philosophical topics.
I love to write, paint, draw and sculpt.
I'm a guitar player and singer, that is actually the way I'm going to survive in this adventure.
I love music, and grew up with classic rock, jazz and blues.
I'm very good at African percussion, and know several rhythms.
Also one of my passions is food, I'm an excellent Mexican cuisine expert, I can make all sorts of broths, soups, stews, salads, and appetizers. Not a fan of desserts.

Music, Movies, and Books
Many bands of classic Rock, like Uriah heep, Deep Purple, Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Zeppelin, ZZ top, CCR, Beatles, Janis, Doors,
I love Mexican folklore music like, rancheras, boleros, huapangos, corridos, and romantic Mexican music.
I like suspense movies and documentaries, I LOVE documentaries. From nature, to politics, from history to existentialism.
Right now I'm reading two books, one is called "Wild Swans" which talks about China just before, during, and after the entrance of communism, it's awesome! And the other one is about the USSR and the way they operated the Gulag (forced work camps) it's quite scary.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Once I saved my cousin from drowning, when I didn't even knew how to swim.
Teach, Learn, Share
The main reason I decided to travel to Europe is to learn French.
I know English and Spanish, both written and spoken 100%
I can teach Spanish and guitar lessons.
I can also teach you how to cook Mexican food!
