About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Become the best version of myself

ABOUT ME
I'm an artist, a teacher and backpacker, love to explore new places, to learn, to talk about life and culture. I'm very easy going and curious.

PHILOSOPHY

"Andabamos sin buscarnos pero sabiendo que andabamos para encontrarnos." Julio Cortazar
Something like: "We were walking without looking for each other but knowing that we will meet each other."
I'm sure that every person I run into came to teach me something and maybe learn a bit with me too.

I love to meet people and help them in whatever they need =]

I think the most important thing we should practice each day is respect each other beliefs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I travelled around Latinoamerica and stayed at CS acommodation, I learned a lot about me and others, it's was a really beautiful experience!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I met people with CS hangout option and I had so much fun that I decided to be part of this community.

I believe CS is a great way to know places uniquely!
