Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Tought that it's a great way to meet new people and make awesome friends.

Hotels around the world are kind of the same experience everytime; it's safe, sterile, fun, but not as nearly as exciting as knowing real places, real people, real food and so on.

I dont wanna pack my home in my bag with me, I want to make every new place a little bit of a new home.

Interests

I'm a natural born book-worm

I'm into Buddhism n stuff.

People think I'm smart, but I just know how to Google stuff.

I'm a Cinephile.

The first time I tried doing Stand Up Comedy I got a flat silence.

I can pull off a joke of just about anything.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music and movies depend on the season, the climate, the year... but books are another deal. I have Gabriel García Marquez "Amor en los tiempos del cólera" as an all time favorite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've drawn comics for newspapers, teached kids and adults how to draw, I wrote a book about drawing cartoons, I teach about clear brading communicatios and I'm currently hosting talks about how to use Zen and Buddhist toughts to improve everyday life.

I've done many things I like to think as a lil bit of awesome.

Teach, Learn, Share

Im, on, that.

Room, bathrooms, services, food, books, Internet connection.
