About Me

Ecuadorian kid who grew up next to the highest point on earth "Chimborazo". Surrounded by tons of lagoons, other volcanoes, cool trails, delicious food and lots of fun in my dearest hometown Riobamba.
Now a womxn on her twentys willing to explore the world, meet cool people and have fun till the end of days.

I lived for 6 months in Ventura, California back in 2019 (pre COVID) due to an exchange program and explored some places around the US area, went to lots of music festivals and found lifelong friends from all over the world.

Recently graduated from college as a Sound and Acoustic Engineer with some projects upcoming, but mainly planning to go on a backpacking trip through South America.

Just discovered the hostel life back in Ecuador, I lived in Cotopaxi Volcano - Secret Garden for three months straight working as a volunteer doing lots of hikking, guiding, food serving, horse riding, meeting people and laughing!! but mainly reconnecting with nature and myself. *Also partying and yoga practicing* you know we all need equilibrium.

I'm always super down for a good adventure, coffee, a Guinness (or any Stout beer) . Anytime and everywhere.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the sense of community and complicity that traveling creates.
For the feeling of belonging to a tribe, spontaneously, easily, sincerily.
To be myself with anyone, in anyplace.

Music, Movies, and Books

Jacob Collier has been my favorite for a couple years. I can't keep him for myself. ENJOY!
www.jacobcollier.com
Into the wild is my fav movie. Want to go to all Supertramp destinations soon.

Reading Braiding Sweetgrass currently, talks about indigenous wisdom, scientific knowledge, and teaching of plants, such powerful and funny narrative.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hikked with an 15 year old black duchshund on my back for 8 hours straight to the summit of pasochoa volcano during a storm because why not. He was always ready for an adventure just gave him a paw.
Will share more of my crazy life having some good food or drink.

Teach, Learn, Share

Trying to share a bit of my culture and country everywhere I go, embracing all the diversity I have as an Ecuadorian that comes and goes from food, animals, landscapes,people, experiences, adventures, places and good conversations.

I've learned a lot about myself and life while traveling alone. Getting out of your comfort zone will always be the best decision you could ever make.

Always try to help other travelers that seems to be in need, talk to strangers ocassionaly (sorry mom). ALL GOOD THINGS COME BACK!
BUT ALSO TRUST YOUR GUT. BE ALWAYS AWARE.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Always ready to show a bit of my beatiful country through delicious food.
¿Have you ever tried ceviche and plantains?
