About Me

I'm a person who is deeply interested in the culture in general, I enjoy meeting different people and having a good chat. I want to travel out of my country and get to know different countries, landscapes, cultures that may help me being more open minded. I am an economist and I'm currently studying a M.A in Literary Hermeneutics, I'm a big lover of literature and arts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to show people my beautiful town, make a cultural exchange and, finally, host and be hosted.

Interests

I'm interested in doing cultural exchanges, knowing the customs of the different countries, especially the countries in Latin America, and feed my education with the experience.

I'm a big lover of literature, since I was a kid I enjoyed reading and exploring all the genres. This passion and my interest in linguistics, took me to study Philology and that was the best decision I made in my whole life.

I love nature and the mountains with its immensity. I've traveled in my country, Colombia, and had the possibility of seeing a lot of landscapes that have encouraged me to travel the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love literature, specially classics. I enjoy a reading poetry too. My favorite authors are Alejandra Pizarnik, Virginia Woolf, Andrés Caicedo and Luis Miguel Rivas. Some of my favorite books are Orlando, Mrs. Dalloway, Werther, One Hundred Years of Solitude and City and the Dogs.
My current academic interests are focused on the study of poetry, especially the Hispanic American of the twentieth century: Alejandra Pizarnik, Teresa Wilms Montt, Alfonsina Storni, Idea Vilariño, among others.
I'm really open minded with the music, mainly I listen Metal (Heavy, Thrash, Gothic), but I also enjoy another genres like tango, salsa, experimental, blues, etc :)
