About Me

Oh god... Who AM I?! just kidding...I'm terrible with "About Me" sections. So, let's keep it simple, 5 things I couldn't live without would be music, friends, family, constant travel and food (emphasis on the food part).

I was born in Mexico but got lost in Edmonton, AB. for the last 9 years and love it.

If you have any questions you are more than welcome to contact me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people. Several friends recommended it, so I decided to give it a try. I am pretty easy going, can talk a lot, and will probably make you laugh with me or at me.

When couchsurfing: I am pretty easy going and love to find a place that I can call home even if it's just for a couple of nights. I'd love to find a welcoming host with a nice, clean, and well maintained space so you can expect to find it in that condition once I leave.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can't think of one amazing thing... but I've been on a glacier, walked over frozen watefalls, worked with Habitat for Humanity, been in two countries at once, been attacked by a shark in an aquarium, met pretty cool people.. to name a few..

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I can teach you about mexican cuisine, Spanish, food... just anything I can and if not I'm sure we can improvise something.

Learn: been trying to learn French for the last couple of years but it's not sticking.
I do improve and become more fluent with a glass of wine. :P

Share: Stories, few drinks, food, laughs...
