About Me

Hi traveler, welcome to Tijuana. Whatever brings you here I sincerely wish you a positive experience . I recently changed job position so I will have very little time available to host unless you can be independent and are cool with house rules, that includes giving me your Real Name. Tijuana keeps growing and attracts the good and the bad, even in couchsurfing! So lets see if we are compatible.

Couchsurfing has brought wonderful souls into my path and I see a different view of life now. I thank those people for the times they shared with me. Jessica , Lauriane & Meli .

House RULES- Must Know

BE INDEPENDENT

"I wont always be available to pick you up or drop you off!
Specially at border or airport"
R E A D T H I S.

If request does not have my name I will not accept you.

I'd appreciate it if you use and tell me your Real Name,after all Im hosting you!

Dont be RUDE! the dinning table is for sharing ! Dont ignore the people hosting you by beeing FIXATED on your cell phone!!!!!!

If you are HIDING from anyone you cannot ask NOT to write a recommendation! Thats what makes Couchsurfing useful and informative.

DONT ask to arrive when I am NOT home,unless you have stayed with me before.

NOT ANSWERING messages is bad manners, especially if you were hosted or helped!

Don't bring people home without my permission, especially If I'm not home.

I have CCTV cameras on premmises ( outside) for security reasons.


Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Compartir y aprender con gente de otras culturas y otras tierras, sabiendo que como las estrellas fugases, se hiran y seguiran su camino dejando a uno con esas memorias que expanden nuestro ser a otro nivel.

Long ago before CS existed, I visited Taiwan R.O.C. and stayed at Tunghai University for a cultural and language tour and also stayed with 4 different families all over the island. The local families took me everywhere and discovered little known places and exotic foods! a type of couch surfing before its time , now I want to give back a little of what I experienced and to PASS IT FORWARD to friends I havent met.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

gave emergency care to new born baby and mother in living room of a house, evacuated children from building with a massive gas leak, entered burning building to search for trapped people, tried to save as many people as possible from desperate,dangerous and sad situations while keeping sane to come home each day and night.

Was a personal guest overnight with buddhist monks at Xuanzang Temple (Sun Moon lake) Taiwan R.O.C. ( before CS)

Teach, Learn, Share

I have learned from raising my daughters to be more caring and open. Laugh and play more.
