Born and raised in northern Mexico 🇲🇽;
Living in Bucharest, Romania cuz the wife doesn't want to move elsewhere (yet) 😂
Teacher at the state university back in Chihuahua (Mex), however I'm working online from wherever I am 🌍 (Thanks pandemic)

📷 I love photography and I'm a bit of a photographer myself, just as a Hobby tho', I'm not a pro :P
just for the joy of doing it.
Anyway, I got my instagram account (mav_photographie) where I share pictures of my trips every now and then if you wanna check it out.

🕉 About personality I'd say I'm quite easy-going and friendly, however, I could say marvels 'bout me, couldn't I? Better check other people's opinions in that section.

What I'm pretty sure about is that I'm a bit of an introvert, but I enjoy meeting new locals because I like to step out of my comfort zone quite often;
I'm always willing to have a good and long conversation.
I don't smoke at all and I don't really drink much, however, I won't reject a beer, some wine, or the local alcoholic extravaganza.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's quite cool to get the chance to spend a couple of nights with a local who actually know what's going on in that place, someone who knows the city/town, what to do/see/visit/eat, and naturally, if the vibe is right, the chance to make a new legit friend.

Interests

I adore learning new languages, getting to know about different cultures, learning from anybody (cuz everybody has something to teach), having long conversations, I enjoy nature and exploring cities, making new friends, and naturally taking tons of photos.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love the Sci-fi genre therefore Nolan's movies hit the spot for me: Tenet, Inception, Intestellar, etc.
Music is a hard one for me because I listen to EVERYTHING.
I'm not into lyrics per se, I'm into the beat, the vibe a song transmits, I might not understand a song but if I feel it, imma make it my new jam.
My Spotify is full of music in ALL LANGUAGES, ranging from Spanish, Italian, English, French, Russian, Finnish, Romanian, Ukrainian, Arabic and the list goes on.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Might not be much to brag about tho', but once back in 2019 I found myself in depression, so in order to fix myself, I took some hardcore measures, so I quit my job, sold my car and a few stuff in Mexico, and left the country just to travel around Europe for fun and also spent some time working on some AIESEC volunteering projects for a year.

No depression ever since and now I have kept on traveling (just a bit because of covid) and working online worldwide.

Mental health is important guys, never underestimate your feelings/emotions.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I'm a teacher so... I can speak a few languages, but if you're interested in learning my native language (Spanish) or improving your English I can totally help you on that topic, also I love sharing my culture and answering questions.

I started my own small business in 2017, LANGUAGE HOTSPOT, in a nutshell, I teach Spanish/English/French/Italian online worldwide,
Got my website here: languagehotspot(dot)com or you can find me on facebook as well as Language Hotspot.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you gimme the chance, we have the time and the ingredients are available, I might cook something for you as well. I'm not Gordon Ramsey but people say I cook decently haha.

And as previously mentioned let's say that my forte is languages, therefore just ask and I'll help you out!
