About Me

Juan Guillermo Mendizabal González (such a long name!!), 28 (29 now) (30 now!!) years old, plant based diet, animal rights defender, mother Earth protector, earthling.

Long story "short":
I'm studied for five years in the university and became a nurse. I worked in a public hospital for two years in the capital of my country and then, I quit my job and I sold all my stuff just to try to do the things in a different way (if you want something different, try something different!!).
Why did I do that!?
I realized that I was living the life that I didn't want to live. So, if you know that, it's just on you to stay in the same place doing the same things because is comfortable and safe (and because that's the "normal"), or, pick your backpack, put some cloth inside (not too many, I love to be a lightweight traveler) and the stuff that you thing are indispensable, and go for it!!
Just trying to be the best version of myself, with me, another animals (human and non human animals), with the envirment, with mother earth, with the universe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because the world and the people are beautiful and amazing!!!

Interests

Languages, culture, food, drinks, history, planet earth, spiritual growing, life, love, laugh, juggling, music, good books, sports, people, ocean, snorkeling, freedive, scuba dive.
My main interest is to learn as much as I can to try to help make this world a better place to live for all of us, and to live the life every single day, because one of these days is gonna be the last one, and when that happens on me (because it will), I want to look that moment and accept it with a smile and with a deep and real thankful, grateful, peace, love and joy feeling. The only way that I know to do that, is to be honest with myself, learn and emphasize about the world and the universe, and try my best in every single day (in all the way you can apply that sentence).
I'm trying to always follow my hearth and my soul in all my decisions, there are all the answers.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: everything!!
Movies: I don't watch too many movies...
Books:
Spark your dream, if you are a traveler and dreamer, that is your book.
The power of now
The four agreements
The Kybalion
The name of the wind
The wise's man fear
The alchemist
Spiritual books, but also I love Harry Potter so bad hahaha

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I stopped to be and think as a money machine, I quit my job as a nurse, sold all my stuff and I started to follow my heart, trying to find the answers of a lots of questions that I got inside me. The amazing thing that I've ever done: take the decision and ride my life (is not that easy, but is worth it).
Other one, free dive down to 30 meters!! (just with one good final breath!!!) mind blowing!!

Teach, Learn, Share

If I can give you or share with you something, I'll do it for sure. And you please do the same.
Sharing is the way!!!
