Hey! I am a visual artist from Guatemala. I currently run an artist residency program in Antigua Guatemala named GRACIA. You can find my work at maferhernandeze.com and graciagt.com
I love traveling with a mix of art + outdoors! I'm vegetarian.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling, meeting new people and actually enjoy going to grocery stores while I travel as it gives me a perspective on what the locals eat; I'm vegetarian so food is an interesting cultural subject for me. Of course I also enjoy visiting local art museums and galleries. I have lived in three countries: Guatemala (Guatemala City + Antigua Guatemala), Mexico (Mexico City) and U.S.A (San Francisco,CA).

Music, Movies, and Books

Music would be mostly Spanish and love great female singers such as Gaby Moreno, Natalia Lafourcade, etc.
I have a terrible taste in movies, meaning I enjoy Hitchcocks movies as much as I enjoy a random Hallmark movie... not proud of it but thats just my undefined taste.
I love all books, books, books that are related to romance, arts, how to, crafts, novels, etc but often times do not know any classic titles because I hated reading through my elementary and high school years.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Share experiences and learn their experiences in life plus an amazing vegan meal because I truly enjoy cooking!
