Overview
About Me
Hi! I'm from Mexico City, I just graduated, I got my BA on Social Anthropology and know I am starting my circus journey. My speciality is aerial hoop.
I love reading anthropology of dance, of the body, of art. When I am not training that's what I do. I also love going to cafés to read and write or just to just chill with friends. I love to walk around the city or town, the best way to know places.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I am going to audition to a circus school in Brussels but I don't know anyone there. It's always better to travel with friends, or in this case, to make new friends to travel with! :) also, I hate conventional turism and this way seems much more interesting.

Music, Movies, and Books
Studying anthropology whilst training circus didn't let me much spare time to educate my self on other matters, so I've red mostly antrhopology theory, or about social sciences in general. But social studies about contemporary scenic arts, body and performance studies, wich are about the intersections about these two, with power. If that makes it less boring for you. Judith Butler, Michael Foucault, David Le Breton, Pierre Bourdieu, Diana Taylor, Victor Turner, Nietzche.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can give you some stretching classes, yoga, hand stands or aerials if we found a spot to do it :) also, maybe some social anthropology basics?
I also enjoy very much making breakfast for everyone every day.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I am the best at making breakfast, or mexican food :) I can also give you a couple classes of stretching or conditioning or handstans or even aerial acrobatics if you want.
