Europe/Amsterdam
Where aren't you from?: 
okay, so this is what i believe: usually people ask: where are you from? and i say:..well, i was born in mexico, but raised in a non-catholic way and even speaking english...so i was not really "a mexican"... but i live in canada....but my father is italian...but my mother(mexican) lived outside of mexico ... ...so in conclusion, i dont believe in NATIONALITIES...i believe in CONNECTIONS-WITH-CERTAIN-CITIES.... or even with certain values: i mean, i will have more in common with an intelectual-artist-dumpster.diver from Holland...than with a mexican-macho-from-a-little-town... (despite me being born in mexico) Home for me is Montreal....and Guadalajara, MX
Will you bring dead animals into the house?: 
0

How did you find out about the Casa?: 
Thru a CS-request, Robin replied to me....
Why do you want to stay in the Casa?: 
I want to be in an open-minded, 100%tolerant space, cooperative-living and dumpster diving are one of the things that make me happy (ive lived in coops in montreal) I want to stay in casa so that, while im in Amsterdam (10days aprox) i will be part of a community....make friends...have things to do....and exchange stories... its also important for me to experience the LOCAL amsterdam...and not the "hostel"world.... Amsterdam is part of the cities that i want to "live in" so, going there and staying at casa will help me FEEL the city and its people.... (by the way, my list is: BERLIN, PORTLAND, AMSTERDAM)
What would be your favourite activity in casa?: 
I dive into bins to make my face look pretty
Do you use Windows, Mac OS or you like freedom?: 
I don't hate freedom
What is your favourite question in life?: 
Do you like butterflies? Are you happy?
Are you a bike-breaker or bike-fixer?: 
Yes
Anything else?: 
Well, I just want to get a bicycle in Amsterdam (maybe a coop? maybe a bike-project?) and ride my bike and enjoy the moment.. I once CRIED while i was riding my bicicle: I woke up at midnight with a DESIRE of riding my bike thru the empty-quiet streets in montreal...so I did...and then all of a sudden POOOOOM, i started crying out of happiness... HOPE TO HEAR BACK FROM YOU SOON.... ps. I am at bosnia right now and will fly from Sarajevo-to-Amsterdam, on august9 at 10am...so i'll be in amsterdam around 12pm.... I guess i'll have internet access in the next days..so, if you accept me in your house-project as a guest (and as a host) please let me know what's the address and some directions.... TAKE CARE!
