Overview
About Me
Friendly and outgoing person.
I’ve not couchsurfed yet, my overseas experiences have been Rotary Club and university exchanges to Canada, Japan, and Argentina, and several trips to the USA. My closest experience to Couchsurfing was giving touristic tours to my flatmates (foreign exchange students) in Tijuana and California, where I lived during my university years.
I work as a Spanish-Japanese-English-French translator and interpreter at a Japanese automotive company in San Luis Potosi, Mexico.

Teaching Spanish in Japan
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach: Spanish, English, Japanese, French, how to cook good meals to survive if you live alone (to avoid fast food).
I always want to learn new things and believe that we are all destined to meet, to teach something to each other in this life.

A nice tour in San Luis Potosi, including a local craft beer tasting.
