About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Hard question. Probably I will spend my whole life discovering which is my mission in this world. But if I would have to say it in few words, probably It would be to have a big and cozy library in my house with hundreds of book that tell me lots of stories. I think that get my Master in latinamerican literature, but I think that the bigest challenge is to write and speak Chinese as a native, read chinese novels and poetry in Chinese, that is really something in which I would spend many years of my life. I would like to visit as many places that my life allows me and why not? be as happy as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have not travel a lot but in every trip I have learned a lot of thinks. Travel is not just to visit places and take pictures in every sightseeing, for me travel is a life experience where you not just get an approach to another culture, but you get close to another way of being, another idea about the world, the history, the language and the life it self. However I have also the fortune to discover that traveling is not just to learn about something that we will call as "other", but also learing about your self, now I know a little bit more about me.

Music, Movies, and Books

One of my favorite books is maybe Portrait of a Marriage, it's a hungarian novel written by Sandor Marai. Movie I would say Incendies directed by Denis Villeneuve, I'm not sure if I spelled it right. Music, I have to confess that I love not just listening but dancing Salsa, for me there is not a more powerful music as this.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't know if unfortunatelly or not I have never do anything that I would call "unbelieveble". Maybe avoid that two young and inexpert thieves steel me, hitting one of them with my umbrella. Although I'm not speacially proud about the last part but anyway this is it.

Teach, Learn, Share

travel is a fortune but not a luxury.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If I'm still living in Beijing and I have the chance to take you to the Summer Palace at the end of the summer, take a long walk till sunset, and beyond mere sentimentality I would pick you up in the airport and I would take you to your hotel if you need it. I would try to answer as many questions as I can and go with you as many places as my time allows me.
