Hi, I'm Ana, 24 years old.
I love art in all forms. I am on my way of learning to be a better painter, I have the idea that we never stop learning.
What I appreciate the most is the time I spend with people I love and myself and learning new stuff
Animals are also a huge part of my life, that's why I am Vegetarian, but I am not a radical activist, I respect every choice of life.
I believe in a world where division of race and borders doesn't exist. We are all the same race with different thoughts, and we need to learn from each other to grow our mind and spirit.

This planet is a gorgeous place, we should get to know him/her better and enjoy it while we are alive.

I keep walking and traveling little by little; every time I put my feet in a new place, I discover a new part of myself. My way of seeing it is that we shape ourselves based on each one of our experiences, and we collect a piece of soul in every place and every person we get the chance to meet.

I am a digital animator. I work doing cartoon TV series
I am currently working in an animation studio in my hometown Guadalajara, México :).

I lived 6 months in Alicante, Spain in 2016 because I was in an exchange from school. There, I had the chance to travel to some countries of Europe.
An interesting and shocking story I have, happened when I traveled to Brussels, because I was there just the time when the terrorist attack happened. I can share this story later
That year was my first time in Europe and the beginning of my fascination and love for traveling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Back in 2016, I did Couchsurfing, a girl hosted me in her appartment in Munich and I really had a good experience because she was a local and she spend time with me, it was really kind and it really shocked me when I discovered this way of traveling because the gain of this is the experience and the people you meet, and it makes me keep faith on human emotions and love. Thats why I came back to Alicante and hosted a guy, it also was really fun!

In the present, my mom and I are traveling back to Europe, and I want her to have the same experience that I had, meet new people and not simply do tourist stuff, intead we want to fill our hearts with others experiences.

Interests

I love art, so I've been studying some types of painting for some years, like , watercolor, Gouache, acrylic, digital painting, etc. When I travel I always take the chance to paint nice spots and beautiful views. For me, the most difficult part is painting landscapes in real life because the light is always changing and it is really difficult for me to simplify what I see and paint just the important things.
