Sam ♉

I arrived [almost 5 years ago] at the Caribbean part of México. I became a workaholic person for a marketing and real estate agency that connected me with a lot of cool people and places.

Since I arrived here I started sharing my home, what I have and what I know with with people that have gave me a lot to learn and laugh.

I'm into music, a lot. Going dancing some techno and then sitting by the beach became quite a hobbie. Besides going swimming and recently doing yoga because Riviera Maya puts a spell on you with wellness vibes.

I'm an independent worker so my phone and laptop are my office. But the magic happens at public relations.

Coffee means a lot to me, as much as a good night on the techno house dancefloor 🕺🏻or a long hike/swim.

I like to practice and share about arts, alternative music, cinema, sociology, history, etc.

Find me on Instagram,
let us have a visual dialog.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing the Nevado mountain while my cousin and I ran into a snow storm. Beautiful but super cold.
Once I also swam in a competition 7km in the sea. I saw a lot of jellyfishes and let me tell you, it hurts, haha.
