ABOUT ME
Travelling, music, my family, Greater Energy, love and the ocean are the reasons that keep me alive! I'm also proud of my culture and I love my country. I'm always trying to learn new things, I enjoy meeting all kind of new people and share with them. I hope to contribute with something to this world.
I studied Oceanology and the great blue is my inspiration in life. I left Ensenada seven years ago and since then I've been living a nomad life, so for the moment I don't have a place to offer. I'm currently working offshore as Protected Species Observer (taking care of mainly whales, dolphins and turtles) and I spend many weeks abroad in the outer ocean working with people from many parts of the world.
PHILOSOPHY
¨Whatever tomorrow brings I'll be there with open arms and open eyes¨
¨Following our will and wind, we may just go where no one's been¨
¨Las penas que sean de otros y la dicha del que aprenda¨
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I offer my place (when I have one) and I promise I will do my best to make you feel like in your own home. As a couch surfer I'm open to show and share my culture, the knowledge and teachings I've been acquiring and understanding through my life. I'm open to meet people wherever they come from, have a nice conversation, share good music, ideas, life experiences, points of view, travelling advices. I want to help as much as possible in everything that I can!
I'm part of this community because I know that we can still trust others despite of what many people think. I love travelling and this is a beautiful way to do it.
