About Me

ABOUT ME
Mexican architect, living in Cancún. I love to travel and trying new experiences. The architecture, the art, the history and the food are my passion.

My kind of readings are mostly latinoamerican boom. I like to believe in the magic stories they tell.

Traveling, to me, is a way of finding yourself, while you find inspiration too. Traveling is about identity... yours opening to another. But not only that, not everything is philosophical. I love data too; Hard information, mapping and analysis reveal another part of the story.
So traveling is to solve a jigsaw puzzle that will change the way you think and perceive. Traveling is to change and not being the same.

That is exactly what I look for when Traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy today but worry about tomorrow. Life might be hard... but people will be kind.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Now I'm looking for different ways of traveling. Knowing people and hoping to get to know a city deeper than a tourist. Making friends from all over the world.

Also hoping to receive interesting people and being able to share my culture and my favourite secret spots on my own city.
