I'm an easygoing person. Just got back home after an academic year in the US with a Fulbright grant. I love visiting new places, trying new food ans having insightful conversation with different people. I'm rather a quiet person, not very loud and definitely very respectful towards other's space.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel to different places without worrying too much about money and doing things alone. I want to hang out with people that can show me their favorite places and the things they do and eat. While I'm in America I would really like to try as much as I can!

IMPORTANT: If you offer me/accept to host me because you expect sex in return, please don't bother. I'm here to make friends and discover what the world has to offer, not to get laid.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done volunteering in Mexico City teaching English to children from a low-income neighborhood. While there I got the chance of learning about Mexican culture and trying out local food and visiting the awe-inspiring Teotihuacán. I don't think I ever forget the feeling of being surrounded by so much magic and the wind and sun on my skin while I was up in the Sun Pyramid.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Spanish and how to make typical Colombian dishes. I would like to share the best of my culture.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share about my own traditions and believes, and if possible about food and music.
