CURRENT MISSION

Keep on learning something new every single day.
Trying to find what I want to do with the rest of my life :)

ABOUT ME

Open-minded.
Free-spirited but committed.
I laugh myself to tears and I cry my heart out.
I am passionate.
I talk too much, really... a lot!
Meeting people makes me happy.
I rarely loose my temper, but when I do I don't like myself.
I have a million things to tell and billions to learn.
Traveling is my biggest passion.
Languages are my forte and I would love to learn more (although it feels like my brain doesn't agree with me anymore)
I (used to) read and write a lot (before I got into an extremely busy lifestyle), but I don't sing or dance at all! (Ok, I do, but reaaaaal bad!)
I grew up on the beach, in the middle of nature and simple life... that's my thing!
I respect mother earth and all the living beings on it.
I love helping out however I can, feeling that I am giving out at least half of what life has given me makes me enourmosly happy.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is beautiful! ENJOY IT!
Laughing is the best medication for the heart!
Share, learn, talk, listen, give, take, see, show!
"Catch your happiness"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Learning, sharing, hosting, surfing, teaching, talking, smelling, tasting, hearing, seeing, showing... and so on.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CS is this amazing place where the huge world gets to be as small as you want. I have surfed, I have hosted, I have attended meetings, and I have even made some good friends.

Interests

Read and write
Talk (about pretty much anything)
Play (board games, billiards...)
Travel (anywhere, anytime)
Learn (anything, anyhow)
Cook and, mostly, eat
...
And on, and on, and on!

I like many different things, stuff that go in many different directions. My biggest passion is traveling, I love hitting the road the simplest way, hitchhiking, hosteling, CSing of course. Meeting people on the way, mingle in with the locals.
I love the outdoors, I feel at peace when I am in touch with nature. I also love spending an afternoon having an interesting chat or reading a good book in a quiet cafe. I love the idea of spending an entire night just chatting or playing board games (Yeah, I didn't have a TV while I was growing up!).

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Dan Brown's thrillers, novels (Luis Sepúlveda is one of my favorite).
I love drama movies and romantic comedies, as well as good animations (I love Hayao Miyazaki's).
I love every kind of music of the world, specially latin rythmic music, the one that makes you want to dance (even though, as I mentioned, I'm not a good dancer). Reggae makes me feel at home and makes me relax :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been lucky enough to have a life full of adventures and amazing opportunities.
To just mention one pretty impressive thing I have lived... 1997 our house was destroyed by hurricane Paulina and we had to start over again... the support and the bond between those who were there is one that will remain in my heart forever.
And there are so many other things... why not have a coffee together and talk about them?

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my experiences with you, my love for the great outdoors, my little cooking skills, my traveling knowledge, my language skills, and mostly I CAN SHARE A LOT OF SMILES! I am willing to learn any interesting new skill :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

A lot of conversations and stories, maybe a homemade dinner?
I can help out in the house if it's needed, and make sure my living space is clean and tidy while I'm there.
I can share some of my language knowledge if you're interested.
I can watch kids, walk dogs (I love them and they love me back!) and cats...
