About Me

27 years old, working in a research and conservation organization in the Riviera Maya.
I love culture in general, geography, journalism reading, and adventure.
I'm an explorer apprentice (really...) and cave diver. I do visual storytelling and data visualization.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to meet some nice people on the road, that's why I'm receiving guests, I want to have the same luck of staying at a local's home when I'm travelling around the world in a couple of years plus I would like to learn about other cultures, and probably learn french.

Teach, Learn, Share

Share: Experiences, house.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a Couch or probably a bed to sleep in, bicycle to move around town, and probably could take you some places with the family car.
The house is a nice small 2 bedrooms house, with a pool and green area (part of the neighbour complex), we can share food.

P.S. I have 2 cats and I don't actually live in the house all year round, but I'm in Playa del Carmen at the family house, 3 times a year and I stay there for 1 to 3 months. So just ask.
