About me

I am graduated in Marketing from the Autonomous University of Baja California. I finished my studies in mid-2014, and at the same time I started working for the
Grupo Internacional Richard as Administrative Assistant, managing sales, inventory, personnel, products; It was an important part for me because I discovered my ability to analyze and I could say oh, I can do something. But it became routine, then i made the decision to quit the job and devote myself to music with my Indie Rock band, playing around the Bars on the av. Revolution in Tijuana.
While I spent my sleepless nights and playing drunk I wondered what i wanted to do with my life, then I checked into Helpx, inexperienced and not knowing what would happen to me later.
A week later they contacted me to make an exchange in Guadalajara, so began my journey.
In the guest house where I was staying I met Mariel, now my girlfriend, and together we decided to tour the center and south of the country, and now plans to travel to South America.
Our trip was embarked with few resources, we asking for "rides" we are now in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca. The story continues...

Preferred location

I will travel through the center, south of Mexico, Center and South America, in the countries that I selected and I intend to find a place where I can stay as soon as possible.
The route is not drawn, we only know that we want to get to Argentina, so I invite the hosts to contact me if they believe I can help them.
