About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn to make my own pasta from scratch and learn adjective endings in German

ABOUT ME

I was born in San Luis Potosí, México but moved to Austin Tx, USA because my dad was getting his PhD, so there we went. I had a lot of fun there for about 5 years but then went back to Mexico. I went to school here and when time came to pick a major y decided languages. I moved to Puebla and lived there until I graduated. In 2008 I lived in Montreal, Canada, went to McGill University with one of my best friends and met incredible people. I had the best time of my life and enjoyed the snow as much as I could. I didn't travel as much as I would have liked but I did go to NYC for Christmas and it was one of the best trips ever.
I've been out and about during my time at Uni. A couple of years ago, I spent sometime in Italy and it was AMAZING! I met a friend I had only spoken to online and visited another lovely girl I met while I was in Montreal. She was kind enough to let me stay at her place and treated me like family.
After that, I made a 2 year visit to the lovely town of Amherst, Massachusetts where I met the love of my life. Long story short, we now live in Berlin and I am a permanent couchsurfer in this interesting city.

PHILOSOPHY

** I believe that education is the way to change the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted a couple of times, I've surfed a couple of times and I've met people for coffee. Each time it was AMAZING. I had the chance to meet incredible people who are doing incredible things. I'm such a proud Couch Surfing advocate and I'm so glad that a site like this exists.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met a couple of couch surfers, we got some coffee, beer and had great laughs. I'm really looking forward to meeting more and more people and hopefully hosting or be hosted some time very soon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I helped save my little sister's life by being her bone marrow donor. Now she is a healthy 19y.o girl :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I can turn anything into ice cream. a really good ice cream that is. I can teach you how to incorporate the eggs without overcooking them and it turning into a disguting mess.
I'm also pretty good at explaining how languages work. I love to make handcrafts and create art with my hands, so that I can also teach.
I can share my experience and world view.
I want to learn, everything. How people live, how they think, their world vision, how things work, why they happen. I'm a student.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share secret intel on amazing restaurants in Berlin.
