Description
Hello,
I am a designer and I live in lo de Marcos, Nayarit. I love designing, creating, enjoying nature and the ocean. I am a little kid with an old soul who loves to experience what life is all about: good times, lots of changes and always learning something new. This has been an evolving process: I have lived in Area for over 8 years, have been couchsurfing for over 12 years and being on workaway for more than 3 year. I love meeting new people and travelling but also having my own home. Sharing and growing is a big deal for me, I believe in true lasting individual relationships.
Recently I was running a startup in sustainable fashion in San Pancho, receiving over 40 volunteers from different platforms and nationalities. Unfortunately due to the lack of funds and time, I decided to close the project and focus my energy on other projects. I truly believe in diversity and group effort and like to relate with people who share the same values. People who are responsable for their actions, emotionally mature and communicative, mindful and conscious of the impact of what they say, do and express, thats why creating and sharing is very important to me.
Lo de marcos, is very magical, it is a place for having fun, healing and human connections. I would like to share this place with you, involving networking, food, business, resting, finding your space, money, creativity, love, nature and opportunities.
