About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to find happiness in the small things of life.

ABOUT ME

UPDATE: CAN ONLY HOST WEDNESDAY - FRIDAY until further notice.

Call me Doctor Alex, but "He's a dentist. Don't get too excited. And if, uh, someone has a heart attack, you should still call 911."

Living on the border of a "third world country" with "one of the most powerful countries in the world" makes for a bizarre environment where we get the best, AND WORST, of each country. I divide my time between Mexico and the US of A at about 50/50. Its not an area that most love, but I am grateful for work and so here I am.

And of course, I also love to TRAVEL! and specifically to EAT while traveling!

I also have a passion for cars, dinosaurs, rock music and many other nerdy things... I am so glad being nerdy is turning cool! :P

PHILOSOPHY

I always give 100% and try to do things right the first time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A good thing about being Mexican is that: 1) we eat A n y t h i n g! 2) we are not picky 3) we are well received (specially if we bring tequila) & 4) we know how to have fun!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

After being a citizen of the world, I have many friends who all rave about CS and its' community. I am now one of those people and CS has in many, direct & indirect ways, changed my life .

Music, Movies, and Books

oh i got ahead on this one before: More specifically; smart comedies, dark ones, raunchy ones, understated ones.

Musically; anything by the greatest band in the world, but I dare someone not to find an artist they love on my music collection.. Even my grandma has something she likes in there!

Literature; anything with WORDS in it! :P preferably novels; even better if they have science fiction (again, very nerdy here)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have experimented very cool, unique places: cool adventures, all continents, all sorts of food. They make for great stories for me to share, but none have "changed my life"

People, that's a different story.... ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a proper toothbrushing technique? Or what kind of toothpaste I recommend at that particular moment?

:P the rest I teach in person!

What I Can Share with Hosts

All my knowledge, good humor and experience: as little as that is. Also, I kinda of like to do dishes :P
