About Me

Looking for experiences and great memories to share.

Im settled studying in Berlin. I used to be a musician in an indie band, journalist, activist and entrepeneur. I'm a History student. Vegetarian for the last 4 years. In my free time I also make some short films for fun. I love learning new languages and new cultures, I find cultural exchange really awesome. Just published my first novel!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After many times of surfing I can start hosting too. It's a small space but helps for crashing a night.

It is great way of meeting people who have common interests and learning on each other. People who open their homes to people from all around the world. It can turn into a community of knowledge.

It becomes a great way to discover the city in a whole different way as well as being closer to the culture you are arriving to.

I like to think of it as a community of Global Citizens.

Music, Movies, and Books

I kinda like all kind of music. On books I'm more of a non fiction reader, but I still enjoy some fiction ones as Ken Follett and Patrick Rothfuss. I really like classicals as well, from Dostoyevski to Dumas and Victor Hugo. I also read philosophy from Plato to Guy DeBord.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've discussed in United Nations as a mexican delegate, I wrote a book.
