About

Mexico City native, based in Texas. Spontaneous and carefree. Love going off-the-beaten-path and going on journeys that take me out of my comfort zone. Obsessed with Japanese style rooms.

Travel style

My travel style is all about personal fulfillment. It goes beyond just taking a picture for Instagram or Facebook. I'll help you achieve the level of self-actualization that you are seeking. Whether through solo travel or with a partner! Sitting in a tatami room enjoying a cold glass of nigori sake in a masu cup with a window open overlooking a flowing scenic river nestled deep in the mountains – that's where you'll find me.
