Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

TRAVELING AROUND THE WORLD AND HOSTING PEOPLE.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

ONE OF THE BEST EXPERIENCES IN MY LIFE

Interests

MUSIC: I love music, really.
CINEMA: My great passion. I just find out that it is impossible for me to live without filmmaking. To work with spaces, lights, colors, sounds and stories through time is the most creative activity I have done yet...
ARCHITECTURE: My base profession. I think architecture is a truly art, conceived in the most pure way for humanity. The potential power of architecture and spaces is infinite.

Music, Movies, and Books

MOVIES: All kinds of movies that show spirit, desire to transmit a message and hard work behind. I like the work of Kim Ki-duk, Béla Tarr, Neill Blomkamp, Sofia Coppola, and many more...

MUSIC: I love music in general. Nowadays I just to listen a lot to classical music, electronic music (house, synth poo, electro), traditional music from India and Asia in general, and opera... experimental music, Grimes, mhm... music that takes risks...

BOOKS: Werther, The karamazov Brothers, Atmosphere from Peter Zumthor, Clarice Lispector. Scientific articles and political articles from the net.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

MEXICO CITY, ONE OF THE BIGGEST CITIES IN THE WORLD. IT IS LIKE A HUGE MONSTER.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you swimming. I have participated in lots of competitions. I can talk with to you about architecture and mexican history.

We can discuss art, cinema, politics, society or just the landscape for hours.

I like a lot to cook. Just give me a frying pan and some vegetables and I would deliver some really tasty stuff! :)
