About Me

I have been living in Europe for so many years I kind of consider myself a European by now, although my Mexican roots have never left me. I love to meet all kinds of people and I am in general vey open minded, thinking there is always something interesting to learn from everybody.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm very keen to the idea of world's views exchange among the entire planet, having strangers that have a totally different approach to life in your couch.

Interests

As outdoor activities, I love to swim in the lake during the hot summer and doing skiing during the cold winter. Other than that, I also enjoy a nice calm evening at home reading an interesting book, watching a nice movie, or discussing interesting subjects with friends.

I am kind of a nerd, and very interested in Machine Learning, Neuroscience, Geopolitics, Physics and Buddhism. I also love talking about travels and adventures. Not too much of a sports fan, though.
