About Me

Hi. I'm 29 years old, I work as a freelance doing video. I also have a Non-profit foundation dedicated to experiment with new narrative approaches using technology and video. I live with my dogs, 2 Shih Tzus and one dog I adopt so is mix breed, something like labrador mix german shepherd, big but really sweet, she is trained. My apartment is kind of big for Mexico City, it has a nice rooftop for barbecues or little parties, and I have an extra room that I can offer to you.
I like to write, watch movies and listen to music. Also I love to take long walks around the city, going to plant nurseries, museums and flee markets, so you are welcome to join me.
I'm always surrounded by my friends, we usually go out for drinks after work or meet at an apartment to hang out. I'm not very a party person but if you need recommendation of where to go I know good spots, and wound't mind to go party as well when I travel. Almost forgot to mention that, i LOVE to travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

I wouldn't be able to pick one thing as my favorite, but there is some things that definitely changed my life.
Music: Bright Eyes, The Walkmen, Arcade Fire, Unkle. And talking about pop culture, I love Beyonce because of Lemonade, I think its BRILLIANT !
Movies: Synechdoque NY, The invention of lying, The science of Sleep, The Lobster and I'm a Cyborg but that's Ok.
Books: Everything about Chuck Palahniuk, lately I'm really getting into Etgar Keret and I'm a Harry Potter fan, so JK Rowling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Three things:
Clavecine, which is my non-profit organization, and my passion.
Being able to start my own business and make it profitable (I have filmmaking sets for rent).
