  • Description

    Hola! 🌎
    I'm a friendly and adventurous Mexican who has been travelling for the past 6 years through 19 countries, exploring the nice cultures of Central and South America, a bit of Europe, and Asia. I truly believe the world is too big and fascinating to stay in home! I'm now focused in having more human connections and experiences rather than materialism and physical attachments. I wanted to live a little outside the social and routine mold.

    I'm a curious and active person doing sports frequently, always eager to learn new skills, embrace different experiences, and stay connected to nature. Whether it’s exploring the big cities, hiking in the mountains, camping, walking through forests, or relaxing by the beach, I find joy in life’s simplest and most beautiful moments.

    After some life experiences I decided to dedicate a part of my time and life to social proyects. When I'm in Mexico, I dedicate time to a social project in a ranch to the north of Mexico alongside an important social activist woman in Mexico. There, we grow crops, flowers, and medicinal plants to support indigenous communities, people in need, and victims in vulnerable areas.

    One of the best parts of traveling is meeting people—both locals and fellow travelers. I’ve made lifelong friends and met incredible individuals who’ve helped me along the way. I love sharing my culture, and I'm also open for others into my country, and offering the same kindness I’ve received.

    Very adaptable and open-minded, I've lived in diverse environments—from big cities to remote ranches, lakes, jungles and beaches! Warm or cold, I adapt easily and love immersing myself in different lifestyles.

    What I’m Looking For in 2025

    This year, I plan to explore parts of Europe, improve my english, maybe learn some basics of other languages. Interested in 1 or 2 week workaway stays and at the end of the year I'll start building my own rancho at the north of Mexico.

    I’m hardworking, reliable, and happy to help with whatever is needed—be it gardening, cooking, organizing, or sharing Mexican recipes. I bring a positive attitude and love sharing stories and experiences with others.
    Life is full of surprises, and I’m excited to keep discovering what’s next. Maybe even finding my life partner while traveling.

    Also for other travellers and locals, feel free to reach out—I’d love to connect! 👋🏻

    Now in Albania volunteering!

    ¡Saludos!
