About Me

CURRENT MISSION

東北三大祭り!I know it's crazy but I'll do my best to go to the Three Summer Festivals in Tohoku this year!

I will be an exchange student until March 2019. So, for the time being, I won't be able to accept guests. Sorry! :(

I just want to explore the world and make friends from everywhere. Once you start traveling and meeting some locals and fellow travelers, is impossible to stop thinking about where to go next.

ABOUT ME

Undergrad student, in love with travelling, passionate about learning new things everyday. I also love culture in any of its expressions: Food, drinks, dance, history, language, anything that describes and defines culture from any place. Also, I'm not picky, so whether you want a beer, or try some food, hit some clubs, go for a stroll on a park, visit a museum... Just name it and count me in!

PHILOSOPHY

I live to be able to grow, not for a personal satisfaction, but for the joy of being able to help others and impact their lives positively.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am not as active as I want on CS, but whenever possible I like to meet up in my hometown, visit some iconic places and some spots off the beaten path :D

Interests

Food, Drinks, Culture, Dance, Friends, Travel, Animals, Movies, Videogames, Nature... I'm not picky and I really love to keep learning.

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh boy, is a long list xD But the really important point is: I'm eager to learn about different stuff, so I will be grateful with any suggestion you make on these matters.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Basically, taking the leap. In 2016 I did my big first trip to Asia (Japan, Indonesia, Vietnam and South Korea), and now I'm back to Japan as an exchange student for 1 year. It's not easy to take the first step but once you get into traveling, you cannot stop doing it, no matter how hard it is. Other than that, I love everything I've done, no matter how small or big it's been.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Spanish language, some Japanese culture, Colombian culture (dance, food, history, etc). I'm eager to learn languages, culture, and any other stuff that I can learn (Remember, I'm not picky)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, languages and probably food :D I love cooking but sometimes it might be difficult, so at the very least I can share my experiences and try to tech them something about English, Spanish, or culture :)

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, United States, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In

Colombia, Japan, United States
