Hello, I am Juan Manuel Zacarias, I was raised in the capital of San Luis Potosí, Mexico, but I have lived in the Huasteca for about seven years. I am an anthropologist by profession and carried out studies related to health, education, music and dance in indigenous and half blood contexts throughout San Luis Potosí.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing
For now I am doing a master's degree in Public Health, a few months ago they approved the presentation of one of my researches at an international congress in Colombia and the University of Antioquia invited me to make a half-month stay to meet and share with their students and researchers. As I live in the Huasteca but I study in the capital of San Luis Potosí I have to move twice a week from one side to another. To save money I joined a group of rides. In that group I met a couple of mountain bikers who during a trip suggested that I subscribe to CS.

Ensinar, Aprender, Compartilhar
One of my passions and an important part of my profession is to know and admire the differences that exist between groups and cultures as well as share my experiences with those who might be interested in them. I consider myself a simple and sociable person because from an early age I was taught to work in and out of the house. I like to cook and I love listening to anyone who has something to say. I find myself learning to speak tének, an original language that is still practiced in some places of Mexico. I also like to write songs about places and people that I appreciate a lot (like my daughter, my partner, my family and friends). For the moment I experiment with "décimas". In Mexico there is still the tradition of making "calaveritas" that are a literary expression, generally comic and in verse form, of how a person evades or faces death. This expression is one of my favorite ways to share with travelers and hosts what is my country, Mexico.
