My name is Andrea Vargas and my boyfriend is Sebastian Aristizabal, we were both raised and live in Bogotá, Colombia. Sebastian works for the Colombian Government as a journalist.

We love to travel and get to know new places and people, we've met really good friends while traveling. We also love to taste new food in every place we go, we like adventures, music and movies.

We love to hang out with friends in the weekends and would love to show you our city!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like to travel the world and we think the best way to get to know a place is being with it's people, exploring not only in the tourist way, but hanging out in the places where locals like to go. We also love getting to know different people who can show us their unique way of seeing the world, we really enjoy knowing more about a different culture than us.

Interests

Of course one of our principle interests is traveling, we also love reading, watching movies and hanging out with friends.
I love animals and whenever I can I try to help shelters and I like cooking.
Sebastian loves music, he has a rock band and he plays the guitar. He is very passionate about journalism.

We also love dressing up on Halloween, last time we were Freddy and Jason
