After completing my primary and secondary education in Mexico, I decided to pursue my studies in the United States. I have been a commuter for more than 4 years since I studied in the USA and lived in México. There was always that fast-paced movement in my life since I crossed the border on a daily basis. This constant motion between borders and different peoples and cultures taught me a love for languages. Everyday I was exposed to two different cultures, two different languages, and two different forms of self-identity. Such an exposure has granted me the pleasure of being fortunate enough to appreciate the love of languages and cultures since an early age.

Right now, Im doing a Master in International Development in Madrid, Spain. I want to be able to build a career in diplomacy and help those who do not have their basic human rights. I have always aspired to be someone who can give back to the community, and I certainly believe that working as an advocate with the UN will help me fulfill my long-lasting dream of changing the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I LOVE to meet new people and cultures... and I feel that it is not only learning the superficiality of the language or its basic structure, but it is about having the opportunity to understand the people thoroughly, its traditions, its sentiments and its culture.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love going to the movies... and action movies are my favorite. Also, I am a big fan of tv-series, my favorite so far is... wait for it.... How I Met Your Mother, of course. I personally consider myself to be an extrovert, so I kinda like every type of music I am exposed to. My favorite book so far will always be Don Quixote... he taught me so much through his adventures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving and travel... no more, no less.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can definitely teach Spanish, and would be glad to share some personal stories of some past experiences... After all, being a commuter taught me a lot.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Experiences, cultures and language!!!! Every time I meet people I’d love to create a different view of my country. I hate how some people hold a bad stereotype of Mexico, and I like others to see all the good things that Mexico has to offer.
