I’m from Mexico City, Mexico but I studied in USA where I graduated from the university and now I also work in USA. I work in healthcare. I love traveling the world, seeing new cultures, trying new foods, and meeting new people! My goal is to travel to every country in the world within the next 10 years. I’m currently at 40 countries visited! I have a new YouTube travel blog channel, in which I travel the world and blog. The link is: youtube.com/user/omar72 . I love meeting new people when I travel because I get to learn about other cultures and the view of life/world from someone else’s perspective. I try to take at least 2-3 long vacations a year to go exploring other countries around the world. I am a polite, funny, and respectful guy. I’ve hosted 2 German students during high school on separate occasions as well as them hosting me in Germany as an exchange student during high school.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I’d like to meet more new people on my travels around the world to learn about the cultures of the countries I’ve traveled. I’ve been using Airbnb and hotels on my travels which doesn’t really allow to meet others directly since you’re renting out an entire space to yourself, so I meet as many people as I’d like. I think using Couchsurfing will give me the opportunity to learn from other cultures as well as to see some amazing places I’d never get to see using other types of stay.
