I am an happy person, always looking around on how to make things better. Have contributed to many NonProfitOrganizations to make this world a better one. I love to make new friends all over the world and learn about other cultures.

I love the outdoors, camping, adventure sports and holding others.

Volunteer work has always been a priority for me (as a paramedic) and my wife who helps get kids off of drugs.

It's been over 15 years of volunteering, and it will continue as long as we can help.

The ripple effect has brought such amazing effects, that it is life fulfilling.

Unfortunately, my home was damaged by the largest earthquake in Mexico City 2 years ago. Hopefully I will be able to offer soon my couch:-(

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel the world and meet interesting people and exchange ideas and life stories.

I believe the purpose of life is TO HELP and TO BE HELPED.

When I found out of CouchSurfing, loving to travel myself, I knew I had to be part of the movement.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I paint.

I make EDM music.

I make bronze sculptures.

But what I most enjoy is transforming big chunks of wood into pieces of art. I carve wood with an electric chainsaw (haven't done so recently because neighbors have started to complain... LOL !!!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I read a lot of philosophy and like to help others in common life problems.

People come to me for help and I am glad to help them see how they can solve their own problems.

As the saying goes... "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. TEACH a man to fish and you feed him for life".

I like to leave my mark on other's memories.

While not leaving a footprint (ecologically speaking) where I go.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Having nice chats together and helping plan a trip in town.

I know the city very well and like to recommend places off the beaten path.

If being a tour guide paid off better, I would do so.
