I'm a Mexican filmmaker, looking for someone to share in and adventure. I do consider myself an artist with a mission -to help the world become a better place through anything I make. I believe that getting to know people from other places and cultures will inevitably broaden the span of you ideas and open your mind. I'm hoping to come back to Mexico with the greatest stories to keep on sharing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm going on my first alone-trip abroad and would really like to meet locals and get to know other places through their people, rather than through a hotel room.

Interests

Film,obviously. Everything that has to do with art. Food, certainly. New places, undeniably. And people, all kinds of people.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music? Probably Sigur Ròs, but I can list almost anything and enjoy it.
Movies? Don't get me started! Tarkovsky, Kubrick, Nolan, Kurosawa. Fantasy, science fiction, animation, documentaries. You name it.
Books: Milan Kundera, Juan Rulfo, Julio Cortázar, Julian Barnes...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I graduated college doing a sci-fi film. It may not sound THAT amazing but man, was it a challenge! Ended up with my friends building a spaceship in my backyard, and shooting the film in the city dump yard- then making it look like the moon with FX. And against all odds -no budget, school almost kicking me out- it went out pretty well, and I just couldn't be happier with the final film.

Teach, Learn, Share

Just became a college teacher (not even a year after graduating college myself). Main subject: film.

I'm also quite passionate on History, and of course, Mexico.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Lots of energy and fun, a bit of knowledge on world cinema, and of course, Mexican souvenirs.
