About Me

I am currently studying for my Informatics master's degree at the Technical University of Munich.

I really like riding my bike in the city, dancing and teaching salsa cubana!!

I love meeting people from other countries and learning from their cultures.

I appreciate the time people give me and try to return it of the same quality, as well as have different kinds of experiences, such as learning new things, tasting delicious food, etc.

I am always learning new things, the last thing was Salsa Casino/Cuban, I loved it so much that I even became a teacher (I took a specialization in an academy to do it).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In recent years I have sought to live together and create good relationships with people from different cultures, from making tandem exchanges (my language for yours), travel, parties, and talks to ventures.

Before COVID I volunteered at my university to support students who come from exchange to adapt to the environment of the school, the city, and the culture. I have personally supported students from India, Chile, Colombia, Belgium, and France (I have hosted a couple of them in my house).

I could summarize that opening up to meet people from other cultures gives you the opportunity to grow in every way by sharing experiences, and points of view and creating new friendships.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoy dancing salsa Casino/Cuban, and a little bit of Bachata.
I also love electronic music such as Techno, House, Electro, Trance, etc. Always open to listening to new genres.

Books on technology, futurism, innovation, entrepreneurship, human relationships, leadership, and fantasy stories. Sapiens of Yuval Noah is my favorite book.

I enjoy science fiction, I love comedy, humor movies, and TV shows.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I survived a summer entrepreneur course in the USA without speaking English haha

Teach, Learn, Share

I also can teach you to dance salsa (beginner and intermediate levels), and the fundamentals of bachata.

If you want to learn how to program in Python, I can help you with that. My specialty is data.

I am looking to learn from people I know about their traditions and lifestyle.

What I Can Share with Hosts

IMPORTANT!

I'm happy to host travelers for UP TO 2 nights, especially on weekends (I might be open during the week). More nights would be a little bit difficult for me. My place is a great spot to crash after exploring Munich. It's perfect for relaxing, taking a hot shower, whipping up a simple meal, and getting a good night's sleep before hitting the sights again.

Here's a heads up: While I love having guests, my space is more suited for those who plan to spend most of their time out and about exploring the city (more like a hostel experience). If you have read until here, include the word "Misifus" in your request.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
