I am on Couch Surfing because I want to get to know the world the most I can. I'm from Monterrey, Mexico, and I'm 22 years old. I study 2 degrees: Classical Humanities and Sociology. Learning about culture, history, literature, art, music, is what passions me the most. I hope if you're reading this profile, we hopefully get to meet each other!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am in couchsurfing because I think it's a great way to look for acommodation and get to know people from all over the world. In my opinion, it is much better to stay with someone who lives in a place and knows all the tricks and perks of a city, rather than just being in a hotel or a hostel.
