About Me

CURRENT MISSION

looking for my Shangri-la

ABOUT ME

Well... i'm originally form Mexico city, one of the biggest cities of the world.

I traveled around Europe years ago while studying, lots of countries and so many incredible places. I visited Cuba and Dominican republic from time to time and I travel also in Canada and some places around USA.

I lived in Melbourne, Australia for almost two years, a really nice place with a lot of contrast in all kind of things, different places all around, different people from so so many countries, from all the corners of the world... a really nice place to be.

Later on I moved to Europe, to be more specific Switzerland, Basel, after i discover part of a lost family in Europe... three years after and again on he road.

This time is Berlin, Germany, I found German language interesting and sooooo difficult at the same time. But not giving up that easily..

I am still searching for my shangri-la... and working hard on it...

I love to travel and meet all kind of people from all around the world, i'm in someway spiritual and follow a relax easy going life.

I'm not really a chatty person but as soon as i meet someone new i get very interested in knowing that person. I like some sports, i try to do rock climbing from time to time, just to have fun and is always a good place to meet fun and interesting new people.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm kind spiritual in my own way... like a wise man said once " Treat everybody like you want to be treated and give as much pain as you are willing to accept"...Donatien Alphonse François de Sade

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well everybody is welcome to have a beer and/or a coffee, maybe a party, my kitchen and of course always good times.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One of the best experiences of my life, three nights in the living room of two swiss friends, one of the most warming welcomes i ever had.

I crash in the house of Jeremy, a French guy who used to live in mexico for a few years, he was missing Mexico so much, so i cooked some real tacos for him to remember good times.

Couchsurfing meetings in Basel, Switzerland were really fun

Interests

I like rock climbing and all outdoor activities, i just love music ( i wish i can play something ),
One of the greatest thing of life a good coffee chat.
Go out with someone interesting (...that mean everybody welcome to do something ).
Like to read when i have the time, and maybe all kind of movies if doesn't matter if its crappy or not, and lay on the grass, sand, rocks, etc... and well... i think i like everything... you name it... let me know and i'll probably say yes... hooo and zombies are awesome...
