About Me

CURRENT MISSION

try to enjoy life every day.

ABOUT ME

Graphic designer currently living in Paris. Art director working in multimedia and motion design. I love to share a beer with my friends the saturday nights, I'm funny and a little bit clumsy. I'm respectful and organized. Enjoy talking about news, history, experiences and travels. Crazy cat lady without her cats ( they're in Mexico city :'( ).

PHILOSOPHY

Be positive. Be curious, Be smart. Live is short and unpredictable, so enjoy. Analyze it, not only complain about it. Keep as treasure all your memories, it's the only things really yours: no one can take them away from you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not know what to write here. I suppose that I'll participate helping others to know -and have fun- in Mexico. And traveling to know other countries and know better their culture through nice couchsurfers who could receive me. // ---> Old stuff, right now I just want to meet people "sympa" in Paris.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have participated in the adventure of been tourist guide. The idea is terrific to me. I like show my city to foreigners, take them to the best museums, historical places, cafés, bars or restaurants. It's a better way to know and FEEL a city, sharing it with it's citizens.

Interests

It's a lot, like everybody. I´m trying lo live with fun, smiles, enriching my life with books, films, taking photos, painting, going to concerts, been with my relatives and friends. And traveling. Even I only have travel in my own country, it's a lot. Mexico is huge and beautiful. However, it is time to move forward, meet more people, feel how is the life in another latitude. // I've already travel across Europe !!! :)
