About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Love, dream, LIVE!!!

ABOUT ME

I love to discover new places and things to do. I worked for FAO for a few years and I learned a lot about agriculture, so If you're into urban agriculture, permaculture, or anything of the sort drop by and teach me what you can! Then I decided that I knew nothing, and that Mexico City was driving me crazy, so me and my awesome, handsome and loving partner decided to move to beautiful San Cristobal. Best decision ever. Im now in my masters degree so I have lots of things to read, but I can always spare some time to have a few drinks and discover this lovely city. My partner is an antropologist with a head full of knowledge and a heart full of dreams, and if you stay with us we will love to be your hosts for a while!

I love watching movies, drinking red wine and exploring!I like to listen to people, I like to read, I love to ride bikes!

PHILOSOPHY

Im am the walrus...

All is love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hello!!! Gerardo (my partner) and I love to share our home with fellow travelers. We would really like to learn about you and your country, so we prefer to host people who have time to share and spend with us (we will also try to host when we have time to show you around). We dont really like to be just your hotel for the night, so if you will be moving around a lot we will be very sorry that you dont have time to talk and share! but we can recommend our favorite hostel in town jeje.
Otherwise, please stay, share, teach and learn and paint a nice picture or a phrase in our wall to keep our collective mural growing!.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I met Gustavo Cerati (a singer) backstage on a concert, I won an acting award once...I got a scholarship to study in france...visited a hospital with a red nose, you'll never imagine the reactions you get from children at hospitals, its amazing. ....I've traveled through this beautiful contry with my incredible partner and by opening my heart to new and different things I've learned more about the world and myself than school ever taught me.

I posed naked next to 18,000 people for a Spencer Tunick shot at Mexico's Zocalo...

Teach, Learn, Share

we all have something to teach...I'm trying to figure out what I could teach others... huuuh I can build piggy banks (is that spelled right???) out of newspaper and flour, I know how to shoot an arrow from a bow, how to do recycled paper, a caleidoscope, and lots of mostly useless yet entertaining things... Please, anyone, teach me how to cook!!! I want to learn sign language too!
I can also juggle 3 balls...
