Hello amigos!

I am Mexican, I really enjoy travelling, meeting new people and having new experiences.

I was studying a Master´s Degree in Sustainable Urban Design at Nottingham, UK, which I finished, now I have decided to travel in Asia and learning from local actions about empowering communities, you can take a look at my project in this link

I love nature and I am a very easy going person! most of my friends find me as a very humorous human being....jiji

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because there is no better feeling that the one you get when you share, and sharing your space with travellers is not only a perfect way to get in touch with new people, but also it helps you to understand your environment by being open and flexible with others.

Interests

I enjoy getting lost in every place I visit, I guess it's the best way to find and understand how does that place works. I am interested in COMMUNITIES in every form. Creating community, community sense, sense of place, community hubs, different groups of people creating communities, community spirit, sense of community, local actions, etcetera!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, I could be listening to nice and chilled sounds as well as metal haha! it depends on my mood though, but I do have a favourite band: Muse (in its origins).

I enjoy mostly independent films, and my top 5 of movies is: Closer, Persepolis, Finding nemo, The secretary and The Count of Montecristo.

I love philosophy, and probably my favourite book is the the unbearable lightness of being by Milan Kundera.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think getting out from my comfort zone, living in a different country all by myself. It has been such a great experience, not only professionally or academically, but emotionally and spiritually speaking; along with the experience of travelling on my own around south east asia, volunteering for six months...amaziiiiiiiiing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you spanish words! or a little bit of meditation or we could go and do some sightseeing together! I love walking around the city trying to understand the urban-architectural stuff behind it. Or maybe going to the woods and smoke weed while we are just there sitting and chatting about life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well, I don't have a spare bed buuut I do have space at home for you to stay, or if you bring your sleeping bag we will be fine....I do have also an object that is like a bed but is not a bed but I forgot the name in english hahaha in spanish is called "catre". If I have some food or fruit or anything you are so welcome to grab some...and if I have some time we could go and sightseeing together, even to the forest or to the towns nearby. :) we'll see.
