About Me

Currently, unable to host. Also, I wrote my profile many years ago and never changed it. I've been a CS member for almost 20 years, even though I haven't hosted anynone in a good while, now. I'm trying to learn Italian, by the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined this community when it had barely above 20 000 members worldwide, so I was one of the first active members in Mexico.

Interests

One day, I'd like to start a writers' annex somewhere in the desert, in a far away place with no internet and no gadgets.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't listen to music very often, so there's that. I'm certain that it makes me seem uncultured, even insensitive, but I prefer reading (can't read with music) or watching videos on YouTube. Sad but true.
Movies, ah movies. Yeah. I watched a few, back in the day, but now it's all streaming and it's so hard to decide what to watch, that I haven't watched anything worth mentioning, to be honest.
Concerning books. I don't read as many books as I used to read when the internet wasn't an ubiquitous thing, but reading is still my passion. Lately, I've been reading mostly sci-fi, especially newer sci-fi.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

If it said "THE Most Amazing Thing I've Done", I'm not going to lie, it would be DMT. Aside from chemically induced experiences, still being alive is a very amazing thing on its own.

Belize, Guatemala, United States
