About Me

(Español/English versions)

Suelo considerarme una persona alegre, o al menos hago un esfuerzo por abrazar la alegría de vivir cada día, aprendiendo de cada persona y situación que encuentro. Al igual que la mayoría de los viajeros, disfruto conocer gente nueva, compartir experiencias y buscar constantemente oportunidades para divertirme y crecer personalmente. Encuentro gran satisfacción en compartir y dar, creyendo que estos actos crean un efecto positivo que enriquece tanto mi vida como la de quienes me rodean. Somos parte de una misma unidad.

Practico la meditación y el yoga, y me encanta pasear y utilizar la bicicleta como medio de transporte. Mi pasión suprema es el arte; abordo todo lo que hago como una forma de arte. Además, mi obra suele ser interactiva, invitando al público a formar parte de ella. También me encanta cocinar platillos de mi país y de otros lugares que he visitado, disfruto del trekking, ¡y de vez en cuando, tomar una cervecita!

(English)

I usually consider myself a cheerful person, or at least I make an effort to embrace the joy of living each day, learning from every person and situation I encounter. Like most travelers, I enjoy meeting new people, sharing experiences, and constantly seeking opportunities to have fun and grow personally. I find great satisfaction in sharing and giving, believing that these acts create a positive ripple effect that enriches both my life and the lives of those around me. We are part of the same unity.

I practice meditation and yoga, and I love strolling and using the bicycle as a means of transportation. My ultimate passion is art; I approach everything I do as an art form. Additionally, my artwork is often interactive, inviting the audience to be a part of it. I also love cooking dishes from my country and other places I have visited, enjoy trekking, and occasionally, sipping on a beer!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

(Español/English versions)

Comencé a participar en el programa hace casi 15 años, cuando empecé a vivir con algunos amigos relajados y de mentalidad abierta que recibían a couchsurfers. Presencié la magia de la experiencia y terminé quedándome con estos amigos, convirtiendo la casa en un espacio acogedor donde personas de todo el mundo podían hacer couchsurfing. Formamos una familia unida que continúa hasta el día de hoy. Nuestra casa siempre estaba abierta a los huéspedes y disfrutábamos cocinando platos exóticos, organizando fiestas, eventos culturales y participando en diversas actividades para pasar un buen rato. Algunos de mis amigos más cercanos hoy en día provienen de esa casa especial de couchsurfing.

Además, he tenido el privilegio de ser hospedado por personas muy enriquecedoras, obteniendo experiencias valiosas en mis viajes.

Puedo afirmar que algunas de mis amistades más cercanas se han desarrollado a través de couchsurfing.

(English)

I began participating in the program almost 15 years ago when I started living with some easy-going, open-minded friends who hosted couchsurfers. I witnessed the magic of the experience and ended up staying with these friends, turning the house into a welcoming space where people from around the world could couchsurf. We formed a close-knit family that continues to this day. Our home was always open to guests, and we enjoyed cooking exotic dishes, hosting parties, organizing cultural events, and engaging in various activities to have a good time. Some of my closest friends today originated from that special couchsurfing house.

Additionally, I have had the privilege of being hosted by some very enriching individuals, gaining valuable experiences from my travels.

I can affirm that some of my closest friendships have developed through couchsurfing.
