Hi everyone, I'm Cathleen a french girl that recently leave everything in France (job, house...) to be able to travel in Latin America for a long time. I spent 2 month in Brazil, a few week in Ecuador and 4 months dancing salsa in Cali (Colombia). 💃

Now I'm back in Europe and recently settled in Barcelona. I hope to keep meeting people from everywhere in the world while I'm settling here 🔆

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What makes a traveling experience amazing is more about the people you meet and your experience with them than the place you can visit.

Interests

My biggest passion is for people. Even though I'm studying business, I have more interest in volontering for non profit organization: I cooked and served meal to homeless people in Strasbourg, was a mentor and organized activities for kids in Bogota and taught French to immigrants in Montreal.

I love dancing and miss Colombia for that. Any bachata and Salsa lovers are more than welcome! 💃

I also love cooking and I can spend hours in the kitchen cooking just for some macarons.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The 4 day hike to La Ciudad Perdida in the Colombian tropical rainforest.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach my native language: French. Would be amazing if I can learn some Portuguese in exchange 😉
I exchange my knowledge about French kitchen against any other country's specialties.
I love to learn about other cultures and would love to hear about your story!
