About Me
CURRENT MISSION
MY MISSION IS SHARE EXPERIENCIES WITH PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD, BE POSITIVE TO FACE ANY KIND OF CIRCUMSTANCES
ABOUT ME
I'M 68, BORN IN MEXICO CITY, CREATIVE, RESPONSIBLE, WORKED WOMAN.
I'VE BEEN MARRIED WITH FERNANDO SINCE 1972; HE LIKES TO PLAY GUITAR AND BOHEMIA REUNIONS. WE HAVE TWO CHILDREN:FERNANDA 30, WHO HAS TOURISM AND HOTELERY DEGREE AND LIVES OM CANADA; AND BRENDA 25 SHEHAS PRE-SCHOOL EDUCATION DEGREE. AMD ´PLER.
I'VE BEEN WORKING WITH MY HUSBAND THE LAST 18 YEARS IN OUR OWN COMPANY (PRINTING).
I LIKE VERY VERY MUCH SOCIAL EVENTS LIKE PARTIES, BIRTHDAY'S CELEBRATION, OR JUST FOR HAVING FUN AND SHARE WITH FRIENDS.
I LOVE COOK,DANCE, MOVIE, READING, WRITING, AND PLAY THE SCRABBLE AND POKER GAME ON LINE
ALSO I REALLLY ENJOY A GOOD MEAL WITH A GOOD WHITE OR RED WINE.
18 YEARS AGO I WAS NOTIFIED THAT I HAVE PARKINSON DISEASE AND WAS TERRIBLE FOR ME IN THAT MOMENT. NOW A DAYS I'VE ACCEPTED THE ILLNESS AND I'VE KNOWN THAT IT IS A CIRCUNSTANCE IN MY LIFE. I'VE FOUND A LOT OF INFORMATTION ABOUT PARKINSON'S DISEASE AND TRY TO BE INFORMED AS MUCH AS I CAN ABOUT THE NEWEST NOTICES ABOUT THESE THEME, ALSO I STAY ACTIVE DOING A LOT OF THINGS WHILE I CAN, I HOPE FOR MANY YEARS.
RIGHT NOW I'M REALLY WELL CONTROLLED AND LIVE ALMOST LIKE A NORMAL PERSON.
I ENJOY VERY MUCH TO TRAVEL AND MEET PEOPLE, SO ME AND MY FAMILY WAIT FOR YOUR VISIT TO MEXICO CITY AND OUR/YOUR HOME. MARIA EDIT ZAMORA
PHILOSOPHY
I'M WORKING AT THE MEXICAN PARKINSON'S DISEASE ASSOCIATION, SINCE I WANT TO OBTAIN A PLACE FOR THE PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE FAMILY THAT TAKE CARE OF THEM.
MY FIRST VALUE IS LOYALTY, JUSTICE, AND RESPONSABILITY. I DO NOT GET SCARED ABOUT WORKING HARD, LOVE MY FAMILY AND LOOK FOR THE UNIT. HATE CORRUPTION. I LIKE RULES AND FOLLOW THEM.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
