About Me

I'm a little Mexican girl, that loves chocolate, ice-cream, TACOS and loves to travel I also practice sports, my favourite one is ultimate frisbee. I do it professionally and in a high competition level, but I love all kind of sports to have fun and be active. I'm currently living in the Netherlands working as a freelancer, I've been living in Europe for almost 4 years, I studied English for 2 years and after I did my master in Spain while playing frisbee around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well, the reason is a bit obvious, I travel a lot and I realised that doing couchsurfing you can meet people and you get to know the place in a different way, closer to it and to the people that live there.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite singer is called Natalia Lafourcade, but I love jazz, blues, Norah jones, etc. the only music that I sing are the popular songs of my country not cause I like them but for some reason, I know them by heart.

Movies I love all of them, one of my favourites are, Grate Budapest Hotel, Django, Fantastic Mr Fox, i don't know a LOT of movies.

and for books I have a fetish for children books, I love the illustrations and how are the written, I love 100 años de Soledad, the little prince (the best), 11 minutes, viaje al centro de la tierra...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think that living abroad and far away from my country is the most difficult thing I ever did, cause it made me grow and be the person that I am now.

Also playing ultimate frisbee and being part of nationals teams, such as in my own country in five occasions, I also played for the national team of Ireland and this last year for Portugal.
