Overview
About Me
After 28 years living, studying and working in my beloved country Colombia (Cali, Bogotá, Tuluá), I moved to Switzerland in August 2017 following my heart and better education opportunities, and It has been the best decision and the biggest challenge I have taken in my life so far!
I consider myself as a happy, friendly and extrovert person, I really enjoy to meet new people and have good conversations. I think that everyone you meet will enriche your life in any way.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I really love the idea to give (or get) a place to a foreign person and make his/her(my) trip better and cheaper. I think CS is the most powerfull tool to discover new places, enjoy them with real local people and to make your travel incredible with priceless recomendations and local insights.
I started hosting people in Cali, Colombia and we had really good times while I showed them some beautiful places in Cali and sorroundings. I was guest for the first time during my travel in Europe 2012 and my hosts were so great, so I always recommend to use CS.
Now, I am traveling in Switzerland and. neighbor countries for some courses, and I would like to meet local people and share time with them and learn more about other cultures and points of view. Also, If you like spanish or salsa dance, I´ll be glad to practice with you.
At the moment I can not host always people as I'm living with my husband in a really small apartment, so we just have a couch to sleep and we often have friends and family visitors, but If we have the chance you will be welcome in our tiny home.
