CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world, connect cultures, contribute to a better future of society.

ABOUT ME

Originally from Venezuela I am a traveler, poet, documentary filmmaker and a languages teacher living in London. I am passionate about film (specially documentaries), arts, languages, history and culture. I consider myself a curious person always looking to learn new things about the world. I enjoy a good conversation, meeting new people, cooking, drinking coffee, reading, walking around new places, climbing mountains, going to museums and libraries and riding my bike. I am quiet, adaptable, respectful and open minded.I love nature and people. My mission in life is to travel the whole world not just for the sake of traveling, but to learn, understand and create new bridges between cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

"The love you take is equal to the love you make" and that is what we need to give to our world.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I believe that the best way of traveling is meeting people from the places you travel. I believe in solidarity as one of the main values of humanity and that is what Couchsurfing is about: solidarity between travelers . The best experiences I have had while traveling have always been when sharing time or staying with locals, and that has also given me great friendships around the globe. I think traveling is also connecting with new people because what makes a country, or a city, or a town are not only their nature beauties or their touristic attractions but the people that live and give life to those places.
