About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to find that one thing in life that defines me as a passsionate practitioner of said thing. Up until now, that thing has been EVERYTHING.

ABOUT ME

I'm a fairly easygoing guy. People tend to let loose pretty quickly around me and accept me for my randomness and geekyness. I love to learn new things every day, and I'm overly curious when it comes to things that I've never seen or heard of before. You tell me about a cool band and their merits and I'll probably like it or at least give it a chance...if it has merits. I'm a huge geek. I'm into pretty much anything that fits into that demographic. Yet, I'm not a social outcast at all and fit in with pretty much any crowd I'm interested in socializing with. My personal friends range from the ubergeeks to the intense partycrashers.

PHILOSOPHY

It's all about having a good time. Whatever happened in the past is only a learning experience to enjoy the present and be sure you don't trip with the same stone in the future.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm a new guy here...Decided to meet new people who are coming by the city, so please contact me if you wanna have a nice long chat with some coffee or tea (if it's cold outside) and cookies or beers (if it's...any type of weather really).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None at all

Interests

I love playing video games with a passion. I even host a college radio show about video games and my other big interest, anime and manga. We've been going on for 6 years and still going strong! I also love readig a good book be it sci-fi, fantasy, fiction, graphic novels, you name it! Love music. Listening and playing...although I'm only just starting to learn how to play the piano. Movies are another vice for me, pretty much any type of movie of any genre. Doesn't mean I'm not picky, but I usually realize I don't wanna watch it halfway through :P It's all about having a good time. Also love just hanging out talking about anything in particular.

I've been practicing Parkour for a while...I can do backflips now! haha

I've managed to create a kinda succesful journalism website and radio show in Mexico and it has opened a few doors for me. Like going to E3 2011!

Teach, Learn, Share

Anything you'd like to know about what I like I can talk about and teach you. Also, some random knowledge tends to pop into my brain every now and then so I blurt it out. As I said, I LOVE to learn, so anything you want to teach me is welcome in here.
