If you want to visit Metepec or Toluca and grab some beers just give me a shot!!🍻 Hi world! Gus here! I am a 26 years old guy who is expecting to meet you whether traveling or hosting you! :). The slower we move, the faster we die! *******MOVING IS LIVING******** I'm a Mexican guy who loves traveling all around the world, meeting new people and cultures not just visiting the touristic places, but living experiences like a local. I've studied abroad three times; Spain, Czech Republic and Canada and I also have done a volunteer with UN in Colombia. My goal life is go edge to edge in this beautiful world, and meet people from even the further place on Earth. I love languages, rock and reggae music and making new friends. Me and my family, have been hosting people from the five continents and dozens of countries, I was member of AIESEC International and Rotary International. I love soccer and hang out also, grabbing some beers with friends while watching soccer is the best match ever.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOSTING: I love traveling and people has always helped me abroad, I'm sure there's always people out there willing to help you and show you her/his beautiful country I'm one of them, I love Mexico, I love my country, I love my family, my customs and traditions and I love when foreign people comes to my city full of energy to discover the world. ******To put it on a nutshell; Couchsurfing is a way to say THANK YOU to all the people out there that has supported me when traveling abroad******** TRAVELING: I love to discover little places in every city, not just the touristic places. Couchsurfing is a way to be a Mexican Ambassador, show the world the magnificent of my country and share with you all my travel experiences as well as undiscovered spots in my city. My MOTTO: *****The most beautiful landscape anyone can find in any country is its people**********
Music, Movies, and Books
My favorite kind of music is Happy Punk, Ska and Reggae, but I listen all kind of music because I love it all! I play bass, drums and guitar. I play drums in a "Ska" band. If you have some instruments, we could even jam together, that would be totally awesome! I don't like movies at all despite my father is the person who knows the most about cinema! I really mean it!
