Overview
About Me
Hi friends!
*NOTE: CURRENTLY CANT HOST, BUT WOULD BE HAPPY TO MEET UP WITH ANY TRAVELERS PASSING BY MINNEAPOLIS!*
Mexican chica living in Minnesota. I'm passionate about youth work, story telling, social change and I work for a really awesome non- profit organization (ask me about it, I love talking about my job!) that allows me to work in schools teaching youth about kindness, courage, and respect!
Random things I love:
Coffee + Pastries
Bringing people/friends together
Exploring new places
Sharing/Writing/Performing/Watching stories
The feeling during a really good conversation, when you realize its happening and you feel super great.
Picking up new hobbies
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I used it on my first trip and not only did I meet some really great people and hosts but I left that trip with one of my best friends to this day and that wouldn't have happened without CS.
Also I love connecting with other and sharing stories..and I hope through CS I'll not only be able to help someone out if I can but just connect with so many awesome people that are out there!
Music, Movies, and Books
Love me some Bell & Sebastian, Monsieur Periné, Caloncho, Mason Jennings, Dr. Dog, Wild Child, Natalia Lafourcade, a lot of spanish dancing music!
Movies: Party Monster, Mr. Nobody, Life is Beautiful..give me an indie film, I love those
Books: The Alchemist
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I planted a cacao tree in the cloud forest in Ecuador once.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm always happy to share my language (Spanish or English!) and cook you yummy Mexican food!
What I Can Share with Hosts
A smile, a helping hand, a potentially bad joke, Mexican food!
