Overview
About Me
I am a social enterpreneur from Mexico who likes a lot to travel, meet new people, have new experiences and try to create a better world in different ways
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because I think that you can only get to know the places where you go by meeting local people and having local experiences. I am so excited to know that there are amazing people out there breaking the cultural, political and social barriers, and I think that it is a way to change the world.
Interests
I am interested in social issues such as youth, politics, environment, diplomacy, culture, etc. That is why I founded and currently lead a youth-led organization about sustainable development in my local context. Apart from that formal issues, my hobbies are to wander around my city and the places I visit, swimming, running and reading a lot. I am very interested in getting to know different cultures and ways to relate to people and nature. My favorite thing in life is to listen to music and to attend festivals, specially from electronic music.

Teach, Learn, Share
I am a person who enjoys intercultural experiences. I can teach you "random facts" that many people don't know or are just not interested about international politics since I had the opportunity of attending the General Assembly of the United Nations as youth delegate. As a Mexican I can also cook delicious dishes and teach you about Mexican culture!
