Born and raised in the north of Mexico in the desert of Torreón, Coahuila.

First roadtrip by myself was from Torreón to Veracruz at age 17 and it was the first I used CouchSurfing.

I moved to the south of Mexico to the beach-port of Veracruz.

I studied my sophomore and junior year in Roswell, New Mexico at the New Mexico Military Institute.

I studied one year of law; however, I switched to medicine afterwards.

In 2018 I took a gap year where I traveled mainly around Europe and Asia.

I got my medical degree in 2023.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing helps making travelling easier and more dynamic. I have traveled using different method and each has its pros and cons.

Through couchsurfing I have been able to meet locals and their cities in a unique way.

Couchsurfing permits me to help travellers as I have been helped.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Gap year: traveled from Cancun, Mexico, to Madrid, Spain, and started a backpacking journey around the world (mainly Europe and Asia) and after 365 days returned from Japan to Cancun with 5000 dollars. I did a low budget traveling mixed with multiple volunteering experiences.

I accompanied Ash Dykes for some time in his adventure of doing the Guinness Record of being the first person to travel by foot the Yangtze River from source to mouth. I separated from him in Wuhan, China some months before the first case of COVID-19 was detected.

I am very proud to be traveling on my own. I have explored the Isle of Skye, slept in the desert in Merzouga, scuba dived in Playa del Carmen, camped in the Aran Islands, travelled across the Yangtze River by foot, became a buddhist disciple in Chinese Zen Temple and cycle from China to Laos!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:
English and Spanish, I can help as much as I can with my medical information regarding diet or basic medical techniques.
Learn:
I would love learning your language, culture and beliefs. I am very opened to debate, more of a Socratic dialogue than an imposing talk.
Share:
Lets share books, movies, and food!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Quality time. I value deep and honest conversations. I don't have anything to hide nor am I ashamed of anything. I enjoy sharing my energy with people and I am very receptive too. I am a very easy going person; however, I do not like engaging in unethical or immoral activities.
Medical advice.
