PHILOSOPHY

"Treat others the same way you want them to treat you"

Motto: Per Aspera Ad Astra

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy hosting/meeting/hanging out with new people. I love listening to their experiences while traveling and their thoughts in general. Everyday you can learn lots of things, you just have to pay attention. When I was living in Venezuela, I loved showing off San Cristóbal (a cool city at the border with Colombia) and recommend places to visit in the country. Now is difficult to travel in Vzla, but if you want to go now or in the future when things are better, let me know!

Right now I'm living in Bogotá-Colombia again, I will start hosting soon (fingers crossed), for now I'm happy to meet csurfers around the city. The CS community here is strong, you can find all kinds of events (language exchanges, dinners, parties, walks.. )

Interests

Traveling, photography, plants, reading, listening to music, going to the cinema, blogging about bands, biking!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

*When I came to Bogota the second time (around 2013), I stayed for two months, as a volunteer for "Art without Borders" Foundation. It was an amazing experience to work in the area of communications and contribute to young people with ADHD/disability and children displaced by the violence of the guerrillas in Colombia.

* Traveled to México to see my favorite band
