Hello! My name's Roberto even if I use Marqués de Velasco as a nick name on social networks. I was born in Mexico, raised in Switzerland, went to college in Spain and live and work in Madrid. I love meeting new people and making friends all over the world. I am an easygoing person, love to travel, to cook and to eat!

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I joined Couchsurfing while in college when a friend introduced it to me. I thought it was a fantastic way to meet people and to open the doors of your home. While living in Geneva we (my family) always used to host many of my mother's long date friends, relatives and friends made on our trips.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Canyoning in the Matacanes Canyon in Nuevo León México.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Make them discover my countries' traditions, their cultures and their gastronomies.
My Interests
I like traveling, reading Wikipedia to learn about random things, to eat good food and to cook (not that I am an amazing cook, but I like to cook). When I get the chance, I love going to musicals since I once had the chance to participate in one of them. I like hiking, going for walks and bike rides in the country.
