Last updated: March 3rd, 2026 CURRENT MISSION Continue to contribute to CS, & explore my love for life, the world, its people, and their culture! (…and hopefully share a little of my/our own too!) TO TRAVELERS: (ABOUT ME/MY SPACE) As a Hostel owner for 17 years now, obviously the business depends on paying customers. Evidently, we’re not always full, so I’d like to be able to give back to the CS community a little bit without ‘hurting’ business too much. I haven’t really done this in the past because of how delicate it is, but I’d like to give it a try to help the community. As such, my thought was to offer a (free) night’s stay to CSers. The first question almost everyone has is “what’s the name of your Hostel”, so to kill two birds with one stone: If you’d like to help return the favor (and make everything easier for me) you can make a 1-night booking for the cheapest dorm on Hostelworld (should only cost 1-2 USD) and I will zero-out the balance due to the reservation. Note: this is by no means obligatory, but appreciated if you’re ok with it, and I’m happy to compensate you for the 1-2 USD with some free drinks. I actually have two Hostel brands in Cancun, so you’re welcome to book at either one: Hostel Ka’beh & the Fiesta Party Hostel. All of this is a delicate balance to strike, but hopefully it makes sense, is enjoyed, and helps people out. =) I travel a lot, and since the business has been open for so long, I’m almost never on-site, but my team has always been welcoming, and the Hostel has always been known for being an incredibly social place for solo travelers, which is why I want to share what I’ve built with the CS community. Given this, one of the advantages of hosting via my hostel is that I’m happy to accept just about anyone; just know you’ll be staying in a bed in a mixed, shared dorm. Another advantage is that I can receive last-min requests without a problem since the Hostel’s reception is open 24/7. We’re also super well-located in a safe part of the city, and easy to get to with public transportation. Lastly, I’m also an active member in the local Cancun Couch Surfing community, so if you’d like to be introduced/added to the WhatsApp chat, I’d be happy to help with that. Now, ABOUT ME personally: I'm an observer, and always try to learn new things from the world around me to improve on myself and those around me (I'm something of an idealist). I'm a work-a-holic, a perfectionist, an over achiever, recently diagnosed ADHD, Sailor, martial artist, multi-tasker (I do way too many things at the same time...), and a jack of all trades. I also love cats. ^.^ I enjoy the little things in life. I love grocery shopping, and can spend HOURS doing this. I love people watching, exploring new cities, photography, exercise, needing out on currencies, flags, and more. I love SLOW TRAVELING! Traveling to me is an amazing adventure, but it's something I like to take my time enjoying. I appreciate getting a feel for what it’s like to really live in some of the places I visit... at least for a little bit. Generally I avoid staying in a city for just one or two days unless I'm really just on a layover. -> I HATE flying. No, not because I have a fear of flying, but because making it to a flight on time is the single most stressful thing for me.... I've already missed more flights than I can count, and in every way you could possibly imagine. >.< Funny, after the fact, but Not cool. 🤣 TO HOSTS: I am house trained! I shower, I put the seat down, I cook, I clean after myself, I bring my own food (and share!). If there's anything I can do to help you, I'll try to do it, but either way, I'll try to stay out of your way. The last thing I want to be for you is a hassle or a burden! I put headphones on and can listen to music when I go to sleep, so you don't have to worry about bothering me when I'm sleeping. I can sleep anywhere, and at any time! I feel like I've written this somewhere else already, but just in case: Proof of me sleeping anywhere on any surface is in my pics, go take a look! =P =D PHILOSOPHY "Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away." "El que quiere, puede." (Similar to: "Where there's a will, there's a way") "El interés tiene pies" (Similar to: "Actions speak louder than words. Don't say it, just do it.") If he/you/she can do it, so can you/I.

CREO QUE NO TODOS LEEN EL PERFIL COMPLETO, SINO LO LEES, CON TODO RESPETO NO VOY A RESPONDER LO QUE ME ESCRIBISTE, me gusta apoyar, me gusta que se sientan en casa, me gusta compartir, me gusta invitar, pero sino tienes la minima idea de que puedo ofrecerte porque no te interesa y solo quieres hospedaje, dejame decirte que no soy una opcion para ti. HOMBRES NO PUEDO RECIBIR, LEAN MI PERFIL POR FAVOR, pero por no recibir no puede decir que no podamos ir a dar la vuelta, los puedo llevar a recorrer la zona hotelera, conocer la ciudad, ir a cenar, ir a caminar, si es fin de semana, podemos planear algo PERO NO PUEDO RECIBIRLOS EN CASA, no son mis reglas, son lo que me permite mi mama y hermana. Una persona tranquila, algo reservado, en lo que pueda apoyar con todo gusto si esta en mis manos, mi Instagram: arthur_ale_ber a los que tienen perfiles nuevos y no ponen nada sobre ustedes, al menos por favor escribe tu perfil de instagran, facebook, para saber quien eres, como eres, y poder tener una platica anticipada, asi cuando nos lleguemos a conocer sepamos algo del uno al otro, no importa que sean nuevos, siempre seran recibidos, alguna vez fui nuevo y nadie aceptada mi solicitud, solo para saber con quien vamos a compartir nuestro tiempo, nuestro hogar.
