About Me

I am a 23 years old currently living in the United Kingdom.I am a cheerful and active young person.
Since I was little, I have been fluent in Spanish and Italian and I have been travelling between Mexico, Italy and
Israel. Besides this, I have studied in four different countries: Scotland, Italy, Mexico
and France.
In my free time I enjoy watching movies if the weather is bad, travel, volunteer and going to exhibitions. My university course is called "contemporary art practice" because of that I am usually trying and testing new techniques in a variety of media that go from installation to printmaking to video.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing as I think it is a good opportunity to meet different and new people from diverse parts of the world. I believe that it allows you to discover more "underground areas" of the places that the couchsurfing takes place as the hosts usually are locals. That is a good alternative from the usual tourist travelling.

Interests

I enjoy been outdoors (when the weather allows). Recently I have discovered cooking but usually I do not cook nice and complicated meals just for myself but for a group of people/ people that I care about. I have always been an active person and when I was young I did 3 sports professionally: tennis, athletics and skiing. So, a bit of knowledge about that could always be shared.

Music, Movies, and Books

Different genres, that go from King Krule and Battiato to the french group Miriam and Amadou. I enjoy listening to different types of music, I am quite flexible. Only genre that I do not really listen to is Heavy metal.
My favourite movies are: Paris, texas. Pulp fiction. Closer. Girl interrupted and Leon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Get a free ride on a taxi for my friends and I in Venice.
Travel around the whole south cost of both Portugal and Spain in two weeks.
Scuba diving in the red sed and in the blue hole.
Survived the Tsunami in Thailand.

What I Can Share with Hosts

As I am mexican I could give a mexican- cooking class.If not, I could give lessons in the languages in which I am fluent. It would be nice to prepare dinners/ cook for my hosts. As meals are a nice opportunity to know the people that are hosting us.
