Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In 2017 I gave up my work of several years to undertake what I have called #ElViajedelaVida #TheJournyofLife. I want to visit some countries of the African continent, backpacking and doing some volunteering. I know that Couchsurfing will help me meet people, have a place to stay and gain experience and save on expenses to continue with the next destination.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really like music, everything! The only genre that I think I can not hear more than one song is Heavy Metal.
Vintage films, history, cases of overcoming, suspense and animated are my favorite.
My favorite book is "Les Miserables" by Victor Hugo. The saga of Carlos Ruiz Zafón is great

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2012 I had my first solo trip, I was in Europe for almost two months.
I adopted a dog and picked up three others from the street.
I made the decision to marry someone a month after we met. We were hopelessly in love ... a few years later we parted :( but it was worth the risk.
Give up my work and sell my things to travel.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Spanish, to cook certain dishes, about my culture and the history of my country Colombia. I know about communication strategies, local producers' markets, organization of events and promotion of the gastronomic sector. Also on issues of administration and public policy.
I like to learn from all subjects.
I share good energy and good conversation.
