About Me

I've always wanted to travel the world and unfortunetly I haven't being able to save the money to do it, but I'm really tired of living a life I don't want in a country that has lost almost its entire esence... So I quit my job and decided to go and live a life of adventure. I'm a Vipassana meditator, so, my plan is to visit every single center I can in the world, starting in Latin America.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here because I'm starting the travel of my life, as I said before, I'm going to every Vipassana meditation center I can and I don't have all the resources and contacts around the world that I would like in order to know every country. I hope that if some day I stablish in any country I could show the same kindness to all travellers in need.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music can be instrumental, celtic and, of course, a bit of classic rock, like The Beatles ...
My favorite movies are those who treat life themes such as unity, love, equality, consciousness, like The Discovery or Avatar to name very few. Or psychological thrillers like Split or Inception. I also like medieval fantasy like The Lord of The Rings trilogy or series like Game of thrones.
My favorite books would definitely be about life growing like Conversations with God, The four agreements, The 9th revelation ... Or about analytical psychoanalysis like Women who run with the wolves, The godesses of every woman or every single book written by Carl Jung. Or about philosophy such as The world of Sophie, The Anticrist, Thus Spoke Zarathustra. I also like some adventure, mistery and romance novels like a few from Edgar Alan Poe, Lovecraft, Lolita, Da Vinci Code, and so on ... When it comes to books is really difficult to stablish favorites ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing that I have done is to complete a 10 days course of Vipassana meditation, that course changed my life... Another thing that I've done and considered amazing was paragliding... And another thing that, well, I'm about to do, is start to living in different places of the world, is to abandone the rutinary life and live day by day knowing another cultures.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach, Salsa dancing and meditation.
Learn, to cook, gardening.
Share, life perspective maybe...
So much things have happened in my life that have teach me to be gratefull about everything I have... I think one of the most big lessons of my life has to be my parents dying when I was 12 years old, my mom died of cancer and my dad died two months later in a car crash... That was the biggest lesson of my life and what I often share with people is "Don't take anything for granted, cherish your family and friends, and love them as if you will never see them again, because one day, it will happen... Live life as it if you could that die today, because you can, do whatever makes you happy, because the memories, the lessons, the experience is what will stay with you until the very last breath."

What I Can Share with Hosts

Besides all that I've learned from my own experience and books, I can share the day, helping in the house or outside, talking... Whatever I can do to make our days a little bit more bright, peaceful and loving.
