I' m a 25 year old mexican student, fond of travelling and meeting new people. I like to hear new stories, and get to know different cultures through open minded travellers. I studied litterature, and I just finished my masters degree in Creative Writing. (Yes, i would like to be a writer, no I don't wear a sombrero :) )

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to get to know the city in a different way. I like staying at hostels because you meet a lot of people and have a lot of activities but I feel that its is difficult to actually leave the touristy side behind and explore other available options. I have also discovered also that you can make really good friends via CS and they will hopefully show you their own experience of their stay in their city: not necessarily by taking you to a new place but also by sharing their story and talking with you.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

–Travel to India with a low budget and arrive to Nepal from Delhi by bus. After three days stuck in a bus you really get to be friends with the locals

–Left México 6 years ago to move across Europe. So far so good: lived in 3 countries in 6 years and counting!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my impressions on Mexican culture (except mariachis and chili con carne and all that stuff that is actually not mexican), nomadism, literature, travelling and whatever trying to become a writer means, so some good stories also!

I would like to learn recipes from other people. It's the best way to remember them afterwards ;) I can myself teach some too.
