About Me

I am a journalist and musician. You can see my work at www.elcachorro.co I have a band called Cinemacinco. You can listen to it on Spotify. I have been working as a TV Host for several years on Colombian channels. I am beginning to expand my network of contacts so I can travel more frequently.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think this is a fun tool to travel and meet important people with similar tastes. I want to know more countries and exchange ideas and hailities. I have a house in the country that I know you're going to love.

Interests

I'm interested in talking about music and exchanging ideas about this. I like to talk about literature and social communication. I live in the country a few years ago and I like the contrast between going to the city and spending time in the country. I like to go running and play guitar as well as recording songs in my home studio. I like to dance and listen to salsa because I was born near to Cali (capital of salsa), Colombia. I like ecological projects and community work. Prepare the best gin and tonic in the area.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My house is in the countryside, near Bogotá leaving from the north. There are extreme sports in the whole area of ​​suesca. I know very well Bogota and could offer a tour through the historic center of the city and then return to the field. I am a guitarist and could give you guitar lessons as well as teach you how to dance salsa. I can prepare the best gin and tonic in the area. my house has a fun space for bbq and to be able to listen to music and have a good time.

Teach, Learn, Share

Guitar lessons, Spanish Classes and how to make the best BBQ in the area! I also have bicycles to know the area and a library with very good copies in Spanish.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a private room for two people in my house. The house has a bathroom with hot water, a country kitchen and an excellent BBQ that works with charcoal. There is WIFI and two hammocks. I can be a guide in the area of ​​my house that is in Sesquile, near to Guatavita and Suesca (please look at the area in Google and you will be surprised). I have guitars in my house with which I can give you some lessons of this instrument. It is also possible to take a bicycle tour through the countryside and take great pictures!
