About Me

***Update 2019***
At the moment I can't host as I'm wandering around the world towards my next destination/home. After 12 years in Vancouver I have decided to make a change and move away. So unfortunately, my comfy couch is in storage and my house is no longer mine :)

I hope I can contribute again to CS'ers once I am settled into a new space somewhere. ;)
*******

Old-fashioned fella who likes to live well and boldly, and let others enjoy life. When I first traveled abroad by myself at 17, I remember a fabulous older lady sitting in the plane next to me, she said simply, "life is an adventure." Her travel stories and how much that had meant in her life made such an impression that I committed to live as freely and extensively, meeting a diverse range of people, cultures and experiences, until my end of days.

All in all, my friends would say I'm warm (born in Mexico), kind and thoughtful. I used to be a yoga and meditation instructor for 10 years but had to stop to pursue a University Program in Cognitive Science. Now I work at a media-tech company in Vancouver, and love spending my free time with the most awesome friends basking in the sun, dancing our asses off, hiking the mountains, riding our bikes through the city or soaking in hot-springs.

Here's to the bold, curious folks treading in this life with courage, lightheartedness and openness!
