About Me

I'm a 21 year old Mexican student, currently doing an exchange student in Ireland. I'm studying environmental engineering back home but right now I'm taking some modules in agriculture. I'm a very easy going person, I consider myself a really good friend and people say I'm very thoughtful and a great listener.
I can be kind of shy and quiet at first but still I always end up making some really awsome friends.
I'm an optimistic person who loves being around nature and friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to get to know more about other cultures and also share my Mexican culture with other people. I think that meeting someone from the place you are visiting gives you a better expirience. You get to see all those cool places only local people know of!

Interests

I love hanging out with friends having meaningful conversations or just chilling around. I love animals but specially dogs, I'm really missing Muka, my brown Labrador who stayed in México.
I go to nature (mountains, woods, beaches) everytime I can, cities suffocate me, I like to go running and hike to relax and be more myself.
Yoga makes me very happy, it makes you more present and your body feels lighter.
I also like to cycle, I belive it should be the main transportation, and if you do it in the mountains it's also awsome, another way to be closer to nature ❤

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading books about inner peace like The power of now (Eckhart Tolle) but also like reading novels like Sherlock Holmes or some interesing love/drama books.

I wish I read as much as I watch movies and series but I'm working on it. I love going to the movies with my family or my friends. I'm into action movies (Marvel, fast&fourios, etc), I'm a big fan of Harry Potter world and similar movies.

My favorite movie would be AVATAR (James Cameron) and my favorite series are The Game of Thrones, Grey's Anatomy and Friends of course!

About music, I like old rock like Elvis Presley, Rod Stewart, Pearl Jam, but also love old and new country music like Kenny Rogers, Darrius Rocker. Really like indie music as well and Mexican music which I could show you!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got carried away with this one hahah here are some things that I'm so greatful that I had the chance to expirience:

I did sky diving in my home town, definitely something that everyone should try at least once!

I bought tickets to Canada without knowing what I would do there for 3 months with no money but had a very fulfilling expirience, it was very challenging but had a great time! it is such a beautiful country specially if you love nature like I do 💚

I hiked the highest mountain in Mexico (5750 meters above sea level), the thing is that when you are up there you forget about the cold and you don't feel tired when you are watching such a beautiful scenario, I have to confess that I'm in love with mountains hahaha :)

I guess being an exchange student in Ireland is another amazing thing I'm experiencing right now, it can be pretty hard when you are missing your family and friends but I wouldn't change it, I'm learning a lot about life and specially about myself.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some Spanish and some fun Mexican's sayings and of course Mexican dishes! In Mexico we are all about the food :D

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer lots of smiles, good vibes and nice conversations!
