Hey, guys! Welcome to Costa Rica!

My name's Angie, I live in Cartago, and I'll be glad to show you around and/or answer your questions about how to get around.

I work from home, so I'll be around the house. But as a side job, I am also a tour guide.

I have a very shy cat, but she will do everything possible to avoid you.

I'm a little shy to start off but up to hear all the stories you'd like to share. Open-minded, easy going and curious about what makes us both different and similar. Fancy a talk about the situation in your country? Teach me about it! Feel comfortable talking about your background? I'll be all ears! Just want to talk about your pet? Please include pictures! You don't really feel like having a chat? That's alright too!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet people and their cultures, listen to their stories and what they have to offer and share.

Interests

Languages, cultures, local traditions, towns, history... all I can learn from the world.

• festivals
• partying
• live music
• food
• meeting people

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: folk, rock, pop, latin (for dancing), indie.
Books: anything but poetry and romance, I'm not much into it.
Movies: anything, not really a fan of drama tho.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I'm trying to do is to grow and try to figure out what to do with myself. The only thing I'm sure about is that I'm from and for the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you're coming to Costa Rica (or if I'm coming to your place), wether you speak little, basic, enough or you already master Spanish, I'll be gald to practice the language with you, and I like teaching our "own language", since we use a lot of expressions and a lot of words that might be understood just by us and maybe some other Latin countries. I can also teach French and Portuguese.

Not exactly a chef, but if we find the ingredients and everything we need, I can show you some of our typical food. Some I can cook, others we will have to go to a restaurant (if you're here), and some others "sorry, you'll have to wait 'til Costa Rica".

From your side, I'm interested in learning random facts about your contry/birthland, traditions, the local food, how is it to live where you live... it's up to you what you share with this human (me).

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer my best. Try to sympathize with you in the most natural way, no awkwardness. I can share my little knowledge and I'm always willing to expand it. You'll have a nice Costa Rican friend I hope.
