HOSTING INFORMATION
At the moment I can only host people in my place in Wuasa (and not Palu), located at the boundaries of Lore Lindu National Park. For more information, please read "My Home"

ABOUT ME

I’m a biologist, born in the Yucatan Peninsula with a fascination for insects, crops, and tropical weather. Recently I started my PhD studies on the ecology of the cocoa and living in Palu and Wuasa, Sulawesi for my research work.

I joined couchsurfing during 2008 when I did my first trip abroad. Since then, I haven’t stopped using this platform. I have hosted several people in Mexico and Germany, and I have surfed quite a few couches all around the world.

It ‘sounds like a cliché, but I do love travelling and meeting people of different cultural backgrounds because that improve my understanding of the world and how things actually work. The huge amount of amazing persons I have met and the incredible experiences I have lived in the last years thanks CS is simply countless. That's the main reason I keep on surfing, hosting and meeting CSurfers.

Music, Movies, and Books

MOVIES: I enjoy most the thrillers, and less the comedies. I'm pretty into tv-series (my favorite one "Breaking bad", no doubt)

MUSIC: I like a broad of different kind of music. I'm not really into one specific style or band.

BOOKS: Recently I'm very into distopian authors, such as Orwel, Huxley, Bradbury and some others.

Teach, Learn, Share

TEACH: I love Mexican food of course. And I could teach you how to cook the best enchiladas ever.

LEARN: I like photography (you can check out some of my photos http://wirnosotrosphotography.wordpress.com/) and I always try to find any chance to learn from others new tricks to get better shots.
