About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find Peace in being lost in Life and to enjoy the Play

ABOUT ME

I'm lost... Then again, I think most of us are. We want to believe that we know where we are going, but none of us have a clue about that. The biggest challenge that I'm facing right now is being at ease with the realization that at any point in time, an infinite number of different instances are possible. Somehow though, a "force" is always guiding us the right way. I'm currently seeking to be at one with this force. Maybe I already am. Again, I'm lost...

PHILOSOPHY

Every moment provides us with everything we need in order to be complete.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meeting as many couchsurfers as possible!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted and "couchsurfed" with people long before couchsurfing.org existed. I always dreamed of a day where an organization like this would exist and now it's here! I've met so many great people through the couchsurfing network, mostly in Europe. I think any person willing to open him/herself up to a stranger is a person worth meeting. Therefore, every couchsurfer is worth meeting.

Interests

society, psychology, spirituality, literature, music, economics, politics, languages, sports, and of course, the grandaddy of all interests partying and having a good time...

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: complex movies that invoke many feelings: Slumdog Millionaire, Romeo and Juliet, The Beach,
Music: now mostly House, Chillout/Lounge, Reggae, but I have had phases with all types of music, so I enjoy most kinds
Books: I LOVE TO READ!!! I read EVERYTHING but lately I have read many non-duality, spiritual, new age thinking books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing for me is visiting a new (and different) city...
The most amazing event in my life has been seeing Paris for the first time. I had previously studied in a French School in Mexico City for 12 years so I knew EVERYTHING about France but never actually stepped into France until I was 16. Being in the country that had influenced me so much during my childhood was like meeting a stranger who I knew everything about...

Teach, Learn, Share

I love these questions!!! I speak three languages natively (Spanish, French, English) and I'm an English teacher so language learning and practicing is definitely something I can do, lol. I have a degree in accounting and I have read quite a bit... Nothing extraordinary, I know...

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Netherlands, Poland, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom
