I’m a Mexican-American traveler looking to explore as much as this short life will allow. I spent a few short months in Latin America. Now on my way to España and continuing wherever life seems to lead me for the next few months.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love people and all of their complicated humanity. I’m looking to meet new, interesting, people who will help expand my view and understanding. Also, something I haven’t done and I’m curious.

Interests

I love running and yoga. Starting to try acro yoga. Hiking. Rock climbing, though I’m out of practice. Writing and reading. Visual arts: painting & sketching.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I might not be the best person for this question. I think life has been a series of amazing occurrences. Rock climbing anywhere, but mostly in the Eastern (high) Sierra Nevadas easily makes it to the top of the list.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share perspectives and stories. I think learning and teaching are the the best things in life. I know a bit about clothing, weaving, and textiles. Some graphic design and computer aided drawing (CAD). Spanish is my first spoken language though English is my most commonly spoken language. I can help work on those languages with you. I am also working on improving my literacy (reading & writing) in Spanish.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Perspectives and fun conversations. I’m a very friendly person and I love to talk about almost anything. I can share about my culture(s) and experience as a Mexican-American.

Countries I’ve Visited

Colombia, Denmark, Italy, Mexico, Peru, United States
