About Me

I find it fascinating to learn from different cultures and share experiences!

Since I really enjoy coding you could see me as kind of a geek 8), I enjoy adrenaline sports too!

I graduated from Tecnologico de Monterrey, Mexico, in 2016. Love Mexican Culture! I'm expected to start working in Microsoft by October.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing offers something unique. Besides a couch and getting to know the place you're traveling to, you also get to know the people from that place, by living under the same roof. Which turns out to be a more amazing experience, since you're able to do the typical tourist things, and know a local! That can recommend more unique things to do.

I'm also here to push myself to be more outgoing with others and learn from them. I believe that the key that changes you meanwhile you travel it's the people you spend time with, more than the places.

So I'm here to learn all I can from life :) I want to listen, from different regions, opinions on different stuff!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've being building confidence for taking great challenges, ever since I started university.

I remember the first time I started rock climbing, I was really nervous and negative if I could reach the top. The funny thing was, I was hanging by a rope that would protect me from falling. (Fun fact: I'm afraid of heights.) Next time I attempted rock climbing was immediately outdoors, and then I was the one securing the bands that would hold my body if I fell. IT IS pretty dangerous to do this since you're just a starter. But a friend pushed me, and with funny/shaking positions I was able to reach the top and close the final band, so I can rappel down. I find this great, since it challenged me to do something I was scared of. And the feeling of reaching the top and appreciate all the nature was priceless.

Since then, I try to find a good challenge :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

My experiences, and funny stories. Or a buddy to help out.

IF you're interested in coding, tell me! I'll do my best to teach you (basis) and give you good material to learn. I believe coding is for lazy people that automate stuff, because they obviously want to simplify their lives. So if you're interested.. Let me know!
