About Me

Mexican filmmaker living in Scotland. Down to go for a hike, walk around, travel, and/or have long talks about movies, music, life, the universe and basically have a great time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel the world and meet like-minded people. I can't think of a better way to know a place than by local people's advice and tips.

Interests

I live for cinema. Since I was little I've loved watching movies at home or at the movies. Nowadays I try to watch as much as I can, all genres, commercial films, art films, foreign, or whatever I can find. And of course, I love talking about it all the time, making recommendations and accepting more for my To-watch list.

Music, Movies, and Books

Besides films, I love music just as much. I like rock and whatever genres come from it, indie, alternative, punk, metal, etc. I also have some likes for pop songs from time to time and I love soundtracks (yes, including instrumental scores). favorite film: I can't decide for one or a few, but I love movies by Alfred Hitchcock, Tim Burton and Wes Anderson. And books... Harry Potter triggered my love for reading and now I like reading fantasy stories all the time. Just any good story with magic, fantastic creatures, love, futuristic elements or mystery. I also enjoy reading about the cosmos, the universe and have existencial talks about it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Practice a dance routine with the cast from Sense8

Teach, Learn, Share

I love the cultural exchange and languages. I've studied a couple of languages besides Spanish and I'd love to learn even more.
I'm very talkative and I will try to talk about everything although I will eventually, somehow, turn it into a conversation about movies or music haha

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like tasting food dishes from every cuisine, I believe I have a strong stomach for that haha. I also like cooking so if we have the right ingredients I'd love to cook traditional mexican food for hosts or guests.
I've found out that, even though I can't say I have seen enough films (ever), I've seen enough to figure out people and make specific recommendations based on what they like... So maybe I could suggest something new!
