About Me

Viajero de la vida, amo las letras, el movimiento perpetuo y la música. Poblano de nacimiento, con la oportunidad y aprendizaje de vivir en países como Holanda, y ciudades como Cancún y la CDMX. Me encanta viajar para conocer personas y nuevas formas de ver la vida. Soy lingüista de profesión y me dedico a las áreas de pensamiento crítico, enseñanza de idiomas y la escritura académica. Aficionado a rodar en mi bici por la ciudad, correr, caminar y a la movilidad sustentable en general.

Travelling is one of my most profound passions: it's one of the activities that make me tick. I am like a child when I travel: I marvel at new people, new places and landscapes. When I was little I used to travel a lot with my parents, we were always going on vacation somewhere near, and I grew up being hungry to discover the world. I've had the opportunity to live in Holland and other cities in Mexico. I teach at the university in Puebla: my study areas are language and critical thinking.

Arts (music, cinema), sports (running, rollerblading, bycycling), social issues (politics, activism, history, urban mobility, intercultural communication) and pretty much all that enhances human qualities and capacities: I'm a very curious lad.
