About Me

I'm a positive and cheerful guy who enjoys traveling abroad when given the opportunity. Its been my greatest passion to learn new cultures and languages.

I appreciate anyone who's willing to share their time and teach me about their life. I welcome anyone who is polite, kind and respectful of others.

FRIEND REQUESTS:
Please don't send a friend request if I have not met you in person. Also please know even though I am respectful of everyone's way of lives and preferences, I am not gay and not interested in nudism or anything related.

HOSTING NOTES:
I host in my spare time and usually this means I'm mostly open on the weekends on evenings. Please note I'm not a big party person, I don't drink much and do not smoke or use other substances. I have nothing against these things but it is not for me. Also I cannot host anyone with pets.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Wanting to make good friends, lasting memories and help out where I can. Traveling alone can be difficult sometimes, so it's nice to meet good people on my journey.

I enjoy hosting when I have an open couch or spare room and try to make myself available as much as possible when not needing to work.

Interests

History of Mexico with relation to other countries.
I enjoy going to the movies and out to bars to socialize

I really enjoy reading about stoicism, meditation and Buddhism such as from authors like Thích Nhất Hạnh.

I currently work for a fin tech company that focuses on remittances(sending money abroad).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm not sure I've done anything amazing... Everything I've ever accomplished has been by standing on the shoulders of giants and accepting the gifts that have been given to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not much of a teacher but I have some skills like programming, native English / Spanish speaking. I know the fundamentals of investing and building wealth.

I'd love to learn about other cultures, countries and languages. I also enjoy learning about immigrant life in other countries, hopes , struggles, successes. I want to know what it's like to live in your country!

I can share my possessions or time. I'm a good listener and loyal friend.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Strong friendship and dependability
