¡Hola!

I'm an illustrator, painter and graphic/web designer from Guadalajara, México. I love music, concerts, festivals, literature and other artistic expressions. Nature has always been a daily inspiration for me since I can remember, so traveling is a way to be in touch with it from different places.

I find it fascinating to meet new people and places; getting involved in adventures and experiences offered by the environment in which I am. I'm a very nice, kind, respectful, laid-back, open-minded, quiet and patient person with a very good sense of humor. I'm good with pets, animals in general, children, home tasks and crafts.

Pet friendly.
Kids friendly.
LGBTTTQI+ friendly.
Overall friendly!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I loved the Couchsurfing experience for the first time when I visited Iceland and Canada a few days ago and I’m planning to keep gathering more travel experiences by connecting with people from anywhere in the world.

I’m always willing to hang out, grab a coffee, enjoy a couple beers, wander the city, hit the dancefloor, go to an adventure, chatting until dawn, hike in the outdoors... you name it! I'm open to all kind of experiences (:

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm fluent in english, I'm learning icelandic, so practicing both languages would be a very good learning experience. I'm offering as well any help for those interested in learning/practicing spanish.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm willing to share any experience of my life, from histories of my childhood, to my cooking skills, language exchange, knowledge about my hometown, good vibes and a lot of music recommendations.
