I went on exchange during university and had an amazing time travelling around. I lived in Guadalajara, but visited many different places. Beautiful people and nature! Highly recommended to visit this country!

Playa de Carmen was beautiful, I’ve gone 4 times already and I always find new thing to do! I would recommend booking a place close to the 5th ave., it’s a street that has literally everything. Restaurants, bars, vendors, and the beach is about 3 to 4 blocks away.

This is a tourist destination with a very artistic vibe. I’ve felt safe here, though it’s always wise to take basic precautions. Most of the time, I highly recommend visiting downtown, it’s lively and always full of people

I feel safe to walk around any time of day being mindful and aware same as I would anyplace. The stress and sidewalks are uneven so be mindful of that to not fall. I walk often with friends along the main tourist avenues that are very brightly lit by shops and hanging lights. People are a friendly mix

About me
Hey there! It’s Ivanozka from Mexico City 🇲🇽 I’m a performer and filmmaker, currently working on an independent documentary and artistic research project. This journey will take me through 16 countries on a budget, guided by purpose, intuition and presence. My work explores various topics of memory, collective consciousness, myth, and the relationship between landscapes (especially the sea) and human experience. Exploring the physical, spiritual and rather personal frontiers we encounter in life. I’m utterly interested in culture, history, tradition, art, and music. I’m a musician and play in a couple of bands in my home country, I’m passionate about modular synthesis and sound exploration, and in that matter I’d like to think of myself as a collector in a way. I’m especially drawn to folk music, the Romani culture, sea legends, old cemeteries, and the stories that live beneath the surface of them. I’ll be waking up early and usually have full days of filming, recording, and writing, so I value calm environments, clear communication, and mutual respect. I enjoy meaningful conversations but I’m also very comfortable with silence and shared quiet. I love cooking and sharing a meal, and I’m excited to learn about local food. I live with my husband Tony, and my roommate Annie whom I’ll be traveling with. We share our life with our cats, Noche, Neftis, and Igor. I really appreciate the trust and care of you letting me stay with you, back in Mexico we actively host when we can. We love welcoming people from different communities and sharing a safe space. I value kindness, boundaries, and honest connection, and I take this opportunity as a way to remember that we’re all, reflections of a shared collective consciousness. Thank you for reading and for opening your home if we share this core values.
