Overview
About Me
I am Seattleite by choice, enjoying life in West Seattle, but born and raised in Mexico City. I am a wine and spirits collector, and a serious and unrepentant food junkie. I am a hopeless world trotter, useless fact collector. I am owned by a cat. Software engineer by day, owl and happy hour enthusiast by night. I enjoy music, and I enjoy listening to any new music you bring to me (I will probably choose opera and classical as my favorites).
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love meeting new people, and learning from their own precious and unique experiences. I "couchsurfed" by accident in the past, both as guest and host, without a site like this one, and I loved the experience. Travelers are usually way more open-minded and adventurous than non-travelers, so I always enjoy learning about them. Also... hosting travelers is the next best thing after traveling ;)
Interests
Travel. Food (anywhere from Michelin-starred fine dining to dive bars and food trucks in the craziest places). Wine. Liquor & cocktails. Books. Contemporary issues. Magazines (Economist, Foreign Policy, Atlantic). Politics (US, Mexico, and Western Europe).
