My current goal in life is to reconnect with my Latin American roots. I'm beginning to speak my mother tongue more often again and the words feel rich and lively as they float out of my mouth. I'm planning a big trip to Colombia (to connect with family) and to Cuba (to see where my great-grandparents are buried).

**I am mainly interested in meeting up/surfing with other women**

Also, this isn't Tinder so think before you send me a weird ass message. No, I'm not interested in that way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is too much going on to stay in one place.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once watched a crow take a bath and was late to work because of it... And I also jumped on a plane alone to Europe at the age of 18 to live on a houseboat on the Seine with a total stranger.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn whatever you want to teach me. The world is full of things I couldn't even imagine existing - please show them to me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can make you a vegan food which would probably include arroz blanco con frijoles negros, yuca frita con mojo, plátanos fritos, mole, veggie spring roles, champurrado, the most bomb kale salad on the planet, and more! I'd really love to learn about a staple cultural dish of yours and try to make it vegan!
