Overview
About Me
I love taking pictures, I feel that I have been able to meet very interesting people through the camera, I like art, especially photography, painting, cinema and multimedia. I also like to see how our bodies change according to our activities and life, I like to help other people to move their bodies more freely. I love traveling, seeing places and interacting with people from other cultures, I like to see how we can have so much in common and at the same time be so different too. I like to work with the land and grow edible plants although I don't have a space right now to do it. I love camping and being in nature as much as possible.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I believe that getting to know a place is also getting to know the people who live there, and having the opportunity to live with the people of the places I visit makes it even more interesting. Previously I have traveled in couch surfing, but with my ex-partners and respecting the times and spaces of each one, I have met beautiful people and also, places that many times only the people who live there know about them. I have been able to get to know the culture in a closer way, which a hotel would not be able to do, it is very different.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I collaborated with some migrants in the southern Mexican border to create and sustain a free kitchen for migrants from everywhere on their pass through Tapachula, Chiapas. We could sustain two spaces free to cook for some months till Abel the manager of the kitchens needed to leave Mexico, I was living in Mexico City and visit some times. It was a very interesting experience for mutual aid.
