About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Studying in Mexico, getting to know Central America

ABOUT ME

I am very curious, that´s why I love travelling and studying. When I get somewhere I want to learn about the local culture, meet the people , have the typical meals and experience the place´s lifestyle.
I practice all kind of outdoor activities from sailing to horse riding and all kind of sports: tennis, ping-pong, soccer, voleyball, etc.
I am outgoing, a positive thinker and I like cooking and prepare all kind of drinks. I say yes to almost every plan! Very respectful of peoples ways, things and privacy.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep a good attitude and be rightful, kind and helpful to anyone that crosses your way... That´ll make everything work for you and fill your life

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am taking courses all over Mexico´s South border, so I don´t settle for long! That´s why I can´t host right now... I can be around for a drink, to give good tips about cheap travelling, good eating and partying!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It has been really great!! More awesome than expected!

Teach, Learn, Share

Same as my philosophy... You know when you are doing something wrong or your actions are harming others... They will come back at you and make you a sad, little person.
